Our coconut margarita recipe is just right! Plus it is nice to have a new take on the classic margarita recipe. The sugar in the cream of coconut overpowers the tequila and the lime juice.

But also, totally appropriate for a winter white party. This recipe is refreshing, making it perfect for summer happy hour and Cinco de Mayo.
