5 Delicious Cocktails For Margarita Day
You don’t have to wait for Cinco de Mayo to celebrate one of the most popular tequila drinks in the country. Saturday is National Margarita Day, yes it’s a real thing. Here are 5 delicious cocktails for Margarita Day fiestas as well as TikTok Tuesday.
All you really need to make a classic Margarita is three ingredients, tequila, orange liqueur and freshly squeezed lime juice. So why do none taste the same? It comes down to the balance and quality of those ingredients. They can quickly become too acidic or even sweet. In addition, not all tequila’s taste the same with their herbal undertones.
Some recipes replace the orange with other fruits and flavors. You’ll find all of that below.

Spicy Margaritas are the rage right now. There are so many ways to achieve that spice, it was hard to pick just one recipe. Some people infuse spice into their tequila. Some muddle peppers in the cocktail shaker, others just float them depending on your tolerance and desire for heat.
