Cotton Candy Margarita

This Cotton Candy Margarita has a delicious tangy citrus flavor and is a fun drink to make any time you need to satisfy your sweet tooth.

I have to admit, this margarita cotton candy cocktail was so fun to make!

This is a wonderful drink to make for Girls Night, it makes a great Bridal Shower drink, or even a fun baby shower drink (especially if you’re having a girl)! 

The color alone is to die for, but adding the cotton candy gives this margarita a sweet flavor that is really wonderful. 

This drink is reminiscent of a shirley temple when you were a kid, but is a grown-up version that will quickly become a favorite!

How to Make A Cotton Candy Margarita

Ingredients:

• White Tequila
• Lime Juice – freshly squeezed
• Canada Dry Vanilla Cream Soda (any clear cream soda will do)
• Orange Liqueur
• Pink Cotton Candy
• Sugar – for glass rims (you can also use pink sugar if you prefer)

Directions:

In a large cocktail glass, add the tequila, lime juice, vanilla soda, and orange liqueur, and stir until completely mixed (you can use a shaker but be prepared it may fizz due to the soda).

Pour the mixture over about a cup of cotton candy that is placed inside a large pitcher. Stir well until the cotton candy is dissolved.

Place the pitcher in the refrigerator for an hour to chill.  

Dip the rims of 4 glasses in the lime juice and then in the sugar. 

Remove the pitcher from the refrigerator and stir well.  

Fill the Glasses 3/4 full and add 1/2 cup of cotton candy to each glass, and stir.

Serve Chilled (over ice is best). Garnish with a lemon or lime wheel and some additional cotton candy. Enjoy!
