I love coming up with new ways to mix a yummy margarita! I had some blood oranges in my fruit basket that needed to be used up, so instead of just eating them for a snack, I decided to make a “liquid snack”! LOL! This turned out better than I expected! It’s perfectly tart and fruity and that salted rim adds that finishing touch! Grab some blood oranges and plan a date with your friends for some happy hour chips, salsa and margs because these, my friends, are D to the LISH!
