Cheers to National Margarita Day!
Are you ready to shake things up this National Margarita Day? Whether you’re planning a party or just want an excuse to day drink with your pals, February 22nd is the perfect day to break out the tequila and limes. This year, #NationalMargaritaDay falls on a Thursday, so you’ve got the whole weekend to recover—or keep the festivities going!
While lots of restaurants and bars will be slinging discounted ‘ritas, nothing beats making your own concoctions at home. And with the right tools, whipping up batch after batch is a breeze. A good citrus juicer makes quick work of limes, and a quality cocktail shaker or blender will have your drinks looking pro in no time.
Stocking Your Bar Cart
To get your home bar fully stocked for National Margarita Day celebrations, a few essentials top our list. Fresh limes are obviously non-negotiable. We also recommend having ice cube trays prepped and plenty of glassware on-hand like festive stemless or plastic cups. And don’t forget the salt and Tajín for that signature spicy-salty rim. With these basics in your arsenal, you’ll be ready to mix all night long!
Whether you go for the classic tequila, lime and triple sec combo or try some creative variations, National Margarita Day is the perfect excuse to kick back with a frozen or on-the-rocks ‘rita. Just be sure to have snacks ready too—these party-starting cocktails tend to go down a little too smoothly. With the right tools and ingredients, your place will be the hottest spot to raise a glass this February 22nd. Salud!
