Prepare a short glass by filling it with ice and adding a few fresh cranberries for a festive touch.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the silver tequila, Cointreau, coconut rum, lime juice, coconut milk, maple syrup, and orange bitters (if using).
Add ice to the shaker, then shake vigorously until the mixture is well-chilled.
Strain the cocktail into the prepared glass.
Garnish with a sprig of rosemary for an added holiday aroma and serve immediately.
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.
