Pitcher Mistletoe Margaritas
These Pitcher Mistletoe Margaritas are bright, festive, and perfect for any holiday gathering. They’re fruity, refreshing, and just the right balance of tart citrus and warm spice, and since they’re made in a big batch, they’re party-proof.
Mix everything in a pitcher, chill until serving time, then top each glass with sparkling mineral water or ginger beer. It’s the easiest way to keep the drinks flowing without playing bartender all night.
