I was inspired by the superfood that is the pomegranate, partnered with the X5 Naturals CBA (Copaiba oil) Nourish Nectar for this delicious play on the traditional margarita. The pomegranate comes into season here in California mid to late September, and this cocktail is a treat to the senses and feels a little exotic all at the same time. With its addition of the X5 Naturals Copaiba Nourish Nectar, you can also know your drink contains a heavy dose of Beta-Caryophyllene, that supports the reduction of inflammation in the body. So gather your friends and sip on this flavorful margarita.
