It’s National Margarita Day and it falls on a Friday! Not that you really need an extra reason to have a margarita, but I’m sure the makes of tequila and triple sec certainly won’t mind if you honor the day with a drink or two. I’ve included some margarita recipes that certainly look tempting…feel free to include some of your own in the comment section.
