Equipment

Pitcher (if making the pitcher version)
Citrus Juicer
Measuring Cup
Blender (for an extra smooth texture_

Ingredients

5 Limes juiced
5 ounces Tequila
2.5 ounces Orange Liqueur
2 ounces Agave Nectar
2 ounces Canned Coconut Milk mixture of both coconut milk and coconut cream
2 tablespoons Coarse Sugar

Instructions

Run one of the juice limes around the rim of your glass and evenly coat it with lime juice.
Pour the coarse sugar into a flat plate and dip the rim into the sugar to coat the entire edge of the glass.
In a large pitcher (or jar with a lid), or a blender combine the lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, agave, and canned coconut milk. Either you a whisk to mix it, place the lid on the jar and shake vigourously, or blend it quickly in the blender.
Fill the prepared glass with ice and pour the margarita over the ice. Garnish with cranberries and rosemary sprigs.

Notes

To get a perfectly smooth liquid and remove any bits of coconut cream you can blend it quickly in the blender. If you plan on making a pitcher of these margaritas then I highly recommend giving the mixture a quick blend in the blender.
The coconut cream tends to separate from the rest of the drink, which is still delicious, but if you'd like to avoid this then use only the coconut milk in the recipe and not coconut cream.
Instead of using cubed ice try crushed iced instead or pebble ice, which will chill the margarita faster.
Change up the sugared rim by mixing in some cinnamon and nutmeg or you can also use coarse salt (try adding the cinnamon and salt together too).
To make pitcher margaritas increase the serving amount to 12 on the recipe card.

Storage Information:

Any leftovers, especially if you're making the pitcher version can be stored in an air-tight container in the fridge. Before serving, leftovers use a whisk to stir the mixture together since the coconut cream will separate as it sits. You can also pour it into the blender again.
