Pink Cadillac Margarita Recipe

If you are having a margarita, why not have a cadillac, and why not have a pink one! Cranberry juice makes everything delicious and the color is a beautiful addition as well. Our recipe for a Pink Cadillac Margarita with our Pink Akala Salt will quickly become one of your new favorites!

I grew up drink cranberry juice at my great aunt's house. She had a gin and tonic, lots of ice, and I had a cranberry juice with a chips' ahoy chocolate chip cookie.

We all know you can mix cranberry juice with vodka, and it would be excellent in Aunt Patti's G&T, it plays well with lime, so why would it now be a fantastic addition to tequila?

A Pink Cadillac Margarita is certainly a recipe to try and share. Our recipe for a Top Shelf Cadillac Margarita is terrific as well but if you are looking for some thing pretty in pink, mayve something for ladies night, or the pool, this is it.

Use this recipe for a summer cocktail or a Christmas Party drink, there is not time of the year that it wouldn't work. And going with the "Pink" theme, if you haven't tried our Pink Akala Sea Salt, this is a really great time to get on board.

Our Pink Akala salt is similar to our Red Alaea Salt in flavor. Not too salty, with a hint of sweetness. Perfect for a margarita rim!
