Happy National Margarita Day!
Yep, February 22, 2019! Margarita Day was established by Nationalmargaritaday.com to help celebrate this amazing drink. One of the best things about the Margarita is how many flavors it comes in, from Roasted Blueberry Basil Margaritas, Peach, Cucumber, to the spicy Strawberry Sriracha Margarita, Yikes!
Perhaps the most popular happy hour drink, outside of beer and wine. Margaritas are meant to be paired with sun, sand, and good company.
The Cadillac Margarita is my all time favorite! The Cadillac Margarita is just as it sounds, it’s the Cadillac of Margaritas. Made with top shelf tequila and only quality ingredients.
Although I still don’t know why National Margarita Day is celebrated on February 22, which is still considered winter, it gives us a great reason to enjoy an amazing cocktail! Salud!
