Notes

Pro Tips

• For a thicker, creamier texture, use full-fat coconut milk or coconut cream instead of light coconut milk.
• Lightly slap the rosemary sprig between your hands before garnishing to release its natural aroma, adding an extra touch of holiday cheer.
• Adjust the maple syrup based on your sweetness preference; it can be omitted for a more classic margarita taste.
