FAQs

Can margaritas be made in advance?

This big batch of pomegranate margs can be made ahead of time which makes them perfect for party prep! Ideally, you’ll make it the night before (sans ice) and store it in the refrigerator until you’re ready to set it out for your guests. Add the ice and any garnish right before servings.

Is Cointreau the same as Triple Sec?

Cointreau is actually a type of Triple Sec, except it has a higher alcohol content. It’s up to you to choose which one you’d like to use in this recipe, though I prefer Cointreau.

What is the secret to a good margarita?

In my personal opinion, it’s the citrus! Even in a fruity margarita like this, the burst of lime juice makes all the difference. Sometimes I even add a splash of freshly squeezed orange juice!

Serving Suggestions

This jumbo batch of margaritas can be made any time of the year, but I’ve got you covered if you want to make it around the holidays or for a summer pool party.

There are some appetizers that never go out of style, so no matter what time of year you’re hosting, you can have spinach and artichoke dip, air fryer pigs in a blanket, and olive oil and balsamic bread dip on the table.
When the holidays roll around, the opportunities are endless! A fig and prosciutto crostini is a great finger food, while a fall salad with roasted butternut squash and pomegranates complement this margarita nicely. For a little somethin’ sweet, consider making this easy pumpkin dump cake!
When the weather starts to warm up, you should absolutely serve dill pickle potato salad! You can also whip up peach burrata salad with some crusty bread for a fruity app, and a summer berry trifle for dessert.
