Seriously, just try not to be festive with that glass in your hand. We recipe tested a few versions of this cranberry margarita before nailing it with this one. How did this suddenly become real life? The part of this recipe that sent us back into the kitchen to retest a few times was the rosemary simple syrup. Rosemary can be such a strong flavor that I was worried about it being too powerful and taking over the cocktail.

I have a jar of rosemary infused bourbon gone wrong that’s been sitting in my liquor cabinet for almost a year. It turned out so strong that it’s basically undrinkable. I was afraid of recreating that situation, so I went pretty easy on the rosemary the first two attempts. Easy to the point of not tasting the rosemary. The rosemary syrup recipe we finally nailed is perfect. Christmas-y flavor that totally makes cranberry margarita.
