Classic Margarita on The Rocks Recipe

Taco Tuesday Cocktail

When you are planning the perfect taco Tuesday, you’ll want to enjoy your tacos with a classic margarita on the rocks.

And, yes, I’m fine with having tacos on other days that end in y.

Also, I enjoy a whole lot of other Mexican foods as well.

The citrus and tequila combination is just the right flavor profile to go along with any type of Mexican meal or appetizers.

Just about any brand of tequila and orange liqueur will do, but you may find that you have favorites.

Sometimes cheap alcohol is fine, but I typically prefer a nice craft tequila from a small distillery.

Feel free to use your stand by favorite or experiment with different brands until you find what works best for you.

Salud!
