Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups tequila
  • 1 1/4 cups frozen cranberry juice concentrate, thawed
  • 1 cup canned jellied cranberry sauce
  • 10 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 6 tablespoons Grand Marnier
  • 7 cups ice cubes
  • cranberries (to garnish)

Method

  • Make the Margarita Base: Combine all ingredients (except ice) and blend in blender until smooth. Transfer to a large glass measuring cup. Can be made ahead. Store in refrigerator.
  • To mix the final drink: Pour half of the margarita base into blender. Add 3 1/2 cups ice cubes. Blend until mixture is slushy; pour into salt-rimmer margarita glasses. Garnish with cranberries. Repeat with remaining margarita base and remaining ice.
