About The Recipe

To celebrate National Margarita Day, we decided to try and make a blood orange margarita. To be totally honest with you guys, we have never tried a blood orange! 🍊

I know, I know. I don’t know how we’ve avoided it.

But, I have to say, It was absolutely delicious!

I am not a huge fan of oranges, but I absolutely adored this. This drink is perfectly sweet with just the right amount of sour-citrusy yumminess.
