February Challenge - Day 22 - Happy Margarita Day!

Did you know that today is National Margarita Day (likely in the US, but hey, we can celebrate too!)?

Now that I can drink, National Margarita Day was a nice excuse just to have a nice drink. I had a beer today with agency partners after a great brainstorming session (although, one can imagine what awesome ideas we could have come up with if we had a couple at the beginning of the session).

Granted, I didn't have a margarita, but one can dream of the cool, tasty drink laced with salt on the brim and heavy amounts of lime to cover the disproportionate amount of tequila to mix. It just reminds of you sitting on a beach in the Carribean watching the waves come in while getting wasted in a lawn chair.

The link above takes you to a site that refers you to a great recipe but also the origins of where the margarita comes from. We all have a showgirl named Marjorie and the pervert bartender that wanted to get with her for inspiring such a great drink back in 1938.

Big thank you to Christine Kay for forwarding the article!
