We enjoyed this very much! Having leftover fresh cranberries from the Holidays, we decided to give this Margarita a try. The fresh lime juice compliments the cranberry juice and berries perfectly. I used just a touch more sugar than the recipe calls for and also used Cointreau in place of the Grand Marnier. Running a cut lime around the rim of your glass and then dipping the rim in sugar and adding a slice of lime is a pretty touch to complete your serving : ) Thank you, barefootmommawv. -
This was great! I loved it. I did cut back on the lime a little bit just becuase we usually think that less is more when it comes to lime. I used triple sec instead of the Grand Marnier. Other than that i wouldn't change a thing. It makes so much too that it would be the perfect party drink. Thanks so much for sharing! -
A very beautiful margarita. I have tried Grand Marnier many times now but I just don't care for it. I might like this better with Triple Sec. Made for *My Three Chefs* 2008 my theme: *Fruity Margaritas*

I live on a very large farm here in West Virginia. We really do live off the land. I plant a large garden, I freeze, dehyrate and can everything possible. We raise beef cattle and hunt wild game. It's a family thing.
I met my husband at work. We got stuck on night shift together and he seemed to grow on me like a wart. We married 5 months after we started dating. We have now been married 11 yrs. He's a great husband and father too our two children. Our oldest is in the 6th grade and youngest is in the 5th grade. We have lived all over the east coast. We spent 5 years in South Carolina. I would have to say it was a great 4 years. I learned so much about that area and experienced alot of different foods while there. I truely miss the people from there.
A little about me. I'm a SAHM. Most of my time here alone is spent playing euchre, canning, gardening, cooking (a lot of OAMC), flipping thru my cook books (and i have plenty) and browsing thru Zaar! I just love it here. Trying to add a lot of our family favorites.
I enjoy traveling, reading, camping, fishing, hunting, gardening, canning, bbq-ing, bon fires, entertaining, baking, playing board and card games with the kids, swimming, photography, and just being with family and friends.

3 stars ~ had to make major changes but got it to work for us.
2 stars ~ too many changes needed, waste of my time.
