Pomegranate Margarita Recipe {by the pitcher}

71 · May 8, 2014 · 101 Comments

This pomegranate margarita recipe is my most requested cocktail. The recipe is for an entire pitcher so you don’t have to make them one at a time and can enjoy the party!

Yet another friend asked me for this pomegranate margarita recipe the other day. I responded with “I’ll send you the link to it on my blog”. When I got home, I did a search. And another search. And realized that I’d never actually posted this pomegranate margarita recipe despite having made them so many times I could do it while asleep.

The first time I made this margarita recipe was for Christmas a few years back when the weather was above 50 degrees and we all decided it would be great to sit outside in December! Margaritas were suggested but I put my own spin on them so they’d be a bit more festive-looking. Everyone went crazy for them and they’re constantly being requested for one gathering or another. And I don’t mind a bit – they’re SO easy to throw together and I love seeing everyone’s happy faces when they taste one! It really is the best margarita recipe I’ve created or found elsewhere.

Memorial Day is coming in just a couple of weeks, friends, and summer arrives just behind it! So put your pomegranate margarita pants on and get things started! You’ll find the only margarita recipe you’ll need below :)

Pomegranate Margarita Recipe {by the pitcher}

You’re going to LOVE this pomegranate margarita recipe! This gets made all the time in the summer and is even pretty for Christmas. Be sure to use REAL pomegranate juice – I’ve tried it with a blended concentrate and it’s just not the same. Enjoy and be prepared to share the recipe :)

2 cups tequila (gold is fine)
1 cup triple sec
2 cups pomegranate juice (use 100% pomegranate juice, such as POM Wonderful or something similar)
1 12- ounce container frozen limeade concentrate
2 cups water
lime wedges (for serving)

Pour all ingredients into a pitcher and mix well. Serve over ice with lime wedges in salt-rimmed glasses, if desired.

It finally got warm enough for me to wear a tshirt outside today and this drink is calling my name! Love the pom juice to give it some bite and a beautiful colour. Making this soon!

Looks wonderful! I could go for one of those right now, but I probably should wait for a few hours! :) Pinning!

This recipe looks great! I am planning to make these for a fairly large party..can you tell me what size pitcher you typically use? Or how many individual drinks does 1 pitcher make? Thanks!

  Hi Lyn! I usually double the recipe when I take it to a party and we usually get about 10-12 drinks out of it (with ice in each glass). So I’d say about 5-6 glasses per pitcher. Hope that helps!

The drink pictured looks clear; not at all like frozen ingredients are used. Do you thaw the limeade before incorporating?

  Hi Sue, these pomegranate margaritas aren’t frozen, so you can either thaw the limeade before adding it or it will melt very quickly while you’re stirring it in. Hope you enjoy! – Kristy

[…] I’m gonna be a margarita drinkin’, jalapeno hummus eatin’ fool. Plans have already been made – I’m heading with friends down to Uncle Julio’s, a fantastic Mexican restaurant here in Northern VA. They’re a slightly upscale Mexican restaurant with an outdoor patio (although I love the dives, too; they often have the best food) . We’ll be getting there early enough to enjoy some sun along with those margaritas and great food. Then we’ll all head back here where I’ll have some Roasted Jalapeno Hummus ready along with a pitcher of pomegranate margaritas! […]

[…] Once you have your seeds (or “arils) removed, eating them is simple. You can eat them by the handful (yes, you chew and swallow the entire seed) or add them to salads, desserts or just about anything you can think of. They’re great for breakfast, especially added to a yogurt parfait. I also like to add a few to my pomegranate margaritas! […]
