Margarita Recipe

Margarita


The margarita is a close cousin to the brandy daisy—margarita being our word for "daisy" in Spanish. Myths about its creation abound as fiercely as tales of the Alamo. What stands clear, beyond any shadow of doubt, is this: the Margarita has claimed its place among the world's most favored drinks, reigning supreme as the foremost cocktail drawn from tequila.
