Ingredients
- 1 (12 ounce) can of frozen pink lemonade concentrate, thawed
- 3 (12 ounce) cans of cold water – (just use the empty pink lemonade can)
- 1 (12 ounce) can of tequila
- ½ (12 ounce) can of Grand Marnier
- Ice cubes – (I like to use crushed ice)
- Salt to rim the glasses
- 1 lime, wedged
Directions
- Pour the (thawed) frozen lemonade concentrate into a pitcher, and fill the can with cold water.
- Pour into the pitcher and repeat twice for a total of 3 cans of water.
- Fill the can with tequila, and pour that into the pitcher.
- Fill about half of the can with Grand Marnier, and pour it into the pitcher.
- Chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving. Or blend mixture with ice to make a frozen version.
- Serve over ice in salt-rimmed glasses with a lime wedge!
Notes: You can also get the same delowcious looking effect with a grapefruit version from The Barefoot Contessa via There Goes My Cupcake. So whichever way your taste buds pull you, your drink will still look amazing!
this sounds great! how many servings is this recipe?
Hey Anne,
Well it depends on your serving size, but I would say about 8-10. Enjoy!

one lol!
I am buying the ingredients for this pretty little beverage tomorrow! Looks so refreshing! Linda
How did your drink turn out Linda?
Hi
Incredibly yummy, thanks!
Could you let me know where the glasses are from, so I can complete the look?
Jen
Hey Jenny! Not sure where these specific glasses are from, but stemless wine glasses are widely available by many different brands and vendors nowadays. My favorite that I have found are Riedel.
Jen I bought some glasses like this at WalMart – they are stemless red wine glasses. About $5 for a set of four. Love them. Target also has some VERY good quality ones, but you pay a lot more.
Thanks for stopping by and helping out Lanie!
I’m just curious if you added a little food coloring to get that beautiful color! I made this last night, and it was nowhere near as pretty as yours!!
Hey Kendra,
Maybe it was the type of lemonade you used. Try minute maid and see if that helps.
Thanks for stopping by!

OK I used HEB store brand. Thanks!
Can you leave out the grand mariner, or do you really need it? We are having it at my daughters wedding.
Can you subitute grand mariner with something else?
Hey Gail,
How fun! I love signature drinks at weddings, especially pink ones. You can try to leave it out all together if you like, or substitute an orange flavored liquor. Hope it turns out well.

Hope you enjoy ArtBLT!
Do you have to use alcohol in this? (tequila, grand mariner) please reply soon.
Thanks
Hey Maryam!
Nope you can definitely make this without the alcohol. I would just follow the directions on your frozen lemonade concentrate container to make sure you get the ingredient portions right and then you will have tasty pink lemonade. You can still salt the rim and use lime to make it special.
Enjoy!
