Apple Cider Margaritas
Apple Cider Margaritas are a great addition to fall parties and holiday celebrations. A refreshing cocktail made with apple cider, pineapple juice, tequila and ginger ale. Easy to mix by the glass or make a pitcher for parties.
Margaritas are a popular cocktail for any occasion and lately we’ve been loving these Italian Margaritas and these Pineapple Margaritas are always a hit with the crowd.
I had some of our Fall Party Punch leftover from a baby shower and it inspired me to use the same flavor combination for a fall Margarita. These Apple Cider Margaritas are really flavorful without being too sweet. They are perfect for any occasion from tailgating to Thanksgiving Dinner.

I think the brand or type of ingredients might make a big difference with this one. I used a fairly mild apple cider, but should have used a heavily spiced one. I also think it might be better with ginger beer instead of ginger ale because I barely tasted anything but tequila…and salt. I don’t think salt works well with these flavors. I had all the ingredients, so it was worth trying even though my version wasn’t very good!
