MARGARITA
MARGARITA
Few cocktails capture the spirit of celebration quite like the margarita. A classic margarita combines the boldness of tequila with the bright tang of fresh lime and the subtle sweetness of orange liqueur, creating a perfectly balanced drink that's both refreshing and invigorating. Served with a salted rim, the margarita offers layers of flavor with each sip: the salt complements the tequila, the lime cuts through with a citrusy kick, and the orange liqueur brings it all together with a hint of sweetness. Whether you’re enjoying it by the pool or toasting with friends at dinner, a margarita is always a great choice.
