This Holiday Coconut Margarita is a festive, fun and unique twist on my favorite classic margarita. I’m a coconut lover so this cocktail right up my alley! When first made this back in 2020, Andrew and I couldn’t get enough of it! It tastes creamy and tropical with the perfect balance of sweetness and zest. Although this would change the whole “margarita” part of the drink, rum would also be great in this. Enjoy!
