Ingredients For Keto Cranberry Margarita

– Tequila: I prefer to use a silver or blanco tequila in my margaritas, but you can use whatever type of tequila you prefer.

– Lime juice: Freshly squeezed lime juice is best, but you can also use bottled lime juice.

– Cranberry juice: I like to use unsweetened cranberry juice, but you can use cranberry juice cocktail if that’s what you have on hand.

– Monk fruit sweetener: I like to use monk fruit sweetener because it has a neutral flavor and doesn’t add any unwanted flavors or carbs to my margarita. You can also use stevia or another type of keto-friendly sugar.

– Orange extract: I like to add a little orange extract to my cranberry margaritas. It adds a nice citrus flavor that compliments the cranberries.

– Cranberries and limes: Fresh or frozen cranberries can be used to rim the glasses and as a garnish. I also like to add a lime wedge to my margarita.

How To Make Low Carb Cranberry Margarita

Rim a margarita glass by running a lime wedge around the edge and then dipping it into a plate of monk fruit sweetener.
Add tequila, lime juice, cranberry juice, orange extract, and monk fruit sweetener to a shaker filled with ice.
Shake until well combined and then strain into the prepared glass.
Garnish with a lime wedge and cranberries, if desired. Enjoy!

Note:

You can make big batch of keto cranberry margaritas and store them in the fridge ready for when your guests arrive.
