Delicious Cranberry Prosecco Margarita made with cranberry juice, fresh lime juice with cranberries. Great drink for casual evening or entertaining friends and family.
Both I and my husband like to drink margarita. Yes going out and drinking is not possible as I don’t have any baby sitter at home. So I make it at home and enjoy it some evenings.
My little ones will ask for apple juice. I learned mixing margarita from my friend, she had done bar attending earlier, so I know it is right way to mix cocktails.
I got a chance to review this VOVETI Prosecco which is from Italy, and decide to incorporate it into margarita as it is our favorite drink.
Since I can get fresh cranberries in the market, I decided to make a cranberry prosecco margarita.
I like fruity margarita than regular one even though purist will say it is not the real one.
Fruit imparts the sweetness and flavor to margarita, and you get a tasty drink.
