National Margarita Day

There’s nothing like waking up on a lazy Sunday morning to find out that it’s National Margarita Day! How this glorious event almost slipped by me is unimaginable since margaritas are my go-to cocktail when I’m not certain how an establishment makes a perfectly pink pomtini.

From fruity fresh margaritas to prickly pear margaritas and margarita themed cookies, it’s here and recipes and DIY treat tutorials are just a click away!  Que tengas buen dia!

Talk about gathering  round the water cooler!  🙂
