In celebration of National Margarita Day, I am sharing a recipe for an amazing Pricky Pear Margarita. Now fresh pears can be tough to turn into a cocktail because of the amount of seeds it contains. So, to make it easy on your self, try using this great Prickly Pear Syrup you can buy on Amazon.

In a small, shallow plate, add the pink salt. Rub the rims of 10 margarita glasses with the lime wedge and then dip the rims into the salt.

Fill a pitcher with ice, then add the lime juice, tequila, prickly pear syrup and orange liqueur. Stir, then strain into the prepared glasses.

• Coarse pink salt, for rimming glasses
• 1 lime wedge
• 3 cups freshly squeezed lime juice
• 3 cups silver tequila
• 2 cups prickly pear syrup
• 1 cup orange liqueur, such as triple sec
