Unique Margarita Recipes
Salty and sweet. A classic combo and a winning recipe for a thirst-quenching cocktail. Hence, why I love me a good old-fashioned margarita. Tequila, fresh lime, Cointreau, and a salted rim. Easy-peasy and potent. Just the way I like it... Preferably on the rocks. Por favor.
Today is National Margarita Day. Yep, a whole 24 hours devoted to my drink of choice. And now that it's creeping up on 5 PM, let's pucker up and pour one in a big tall glass. I fully intend on celebrating with a Mexican feast complete with a pitcher of spiked liquid deliciousness--once I put the kids to bed, of course. (T-minus three hours until Mama's night in!)
I'll probably keep it simple and classic, but you can most definitely put a twist on a margarita, and incorporate some totally unexpected ingredients. I've rounded up a few of the most interesting, unique, and totally awesome margarita out there. With recipes that call for cotton candy, avocado, and lavender, these are most definitely don't fit my simple four-item criteria above.
