    LAST UPDATED: February 5, 2021 PUBLISHED: February 5, 2021 By Pam Greer Leave a Comment As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

    A collection of our favorite recipes to celebrate blood orange season!

    With their deep rosy color and sweet tangy flavor, they are perfect in cocktails and savory dishes!

    Blood orange season runs from December to April, so we like to grab them whenever we can find them in the stores.

    That deep red color and their sweet flavor makes them perfect to use in both cocktails and savory recipes!

    We have gathered together a collection of our favorite recipes using blood oranges! Mostly cocktails (no surprise there) but also a fresh and delicious salad!

    Up first we have a Blood Orange Martini! With only 3 ingredients, it's so easy and you are going to love sipping this sweet and tangy cocktail!

    Whiskey sours are one of our favorite cocktails, so of course we had to come up with a Blood Orange Whiskey Sour!

    Citrus and whiskey are the perfect match. The blood orange juice is a little bit sweeter, so you can easily adjust how much simple syrup you add.

    Tequila makes everything better, right?! We have margaritas almost every Saturday night (we're big on tradition here, especially when it involves tequila.)

    We love our margaritas with a little orange juice anyway (hello.... Orange, Lemon and Lime Margarita) so adding blood orange instead to make a Blood Orange Margarita was a no brainer!

    We make this Blood Orange and Roasted Beets Salad as many times as we can during blood orange season. It is really lovely on an Easter table - so bright and colorful!
