What is National Margarita Day?
On February 22nd, rims a glass with salt and serves up a refreshing drink that tastes like the summer sun. This day is for you whether you like them on the rocks or blended.
The margarita is a drink that contains tequila, triple sec, and lime or lemon juice, and is considered the most popular tequila-based cocktail in the United States. Fresh squeezed lime juice is a key ingredient in this recipe. The thick-skinned Persian lime is the most common lime in the United States. They have a much softer taste when margaritas are made with lemons.
There are several ways to sorting out the legends associated with the margarita's origins. Two things are certain: the cocktail featured tequila, and the bartender edged the glass with salt, and the cocktail included tequila; the cocktail contained tequila. When drinking straight tequila (especially if the quality was bad), the best course of action was to down it in one swallow, suck on a wedge of lime, and lick a dash of salt off the back of your hand.
To the margarita glass, it makes sense that the salt followed the lime and the tequila. Today, lime is not the only flavor of margarita, and the bar's experts have developed innovative mixing dried herbs, infused sugars, and exotic salts to enhance both the glass and the drink's appearance..
