Description
Prickly pear margaritas are one of my favorite fruity cocktails, and it’s so easy to make this vibrant, pink drink at home. You don’t even need to make a syrup. Serve them on the rocks or blended with ice for a refreshing summer cocktail.

Ingredients

In a blender, puree the prickly pears until smooth. Strain the juice into a pitcher.
