Meet the Cotton Candy Margarita — because who said margaritas can’t be as fun as they are delicious? A sugary swirl of nostalgia meets that classic tart lime kick, and just like that, we’ve turned a margarita into a sweet treat. Cotton candy in your drink? Yes, please! 
: Over 185,000 margaritas are consumed every hour in the United States, making it the top-selling cocktail in the country!
: In Spanish, “Margarita” translates to “daisy,” and some believe the margarita is a variation of the classic “daisy” cocktail from the 1930s.
: It’s said that the salted rim was invented by mistake! A bartender accidentally salted the rim of a glass, and the customer loved it. The rest is history!
: The frozen margarita was invented in the 1970s by a Dallas bartender who wanted to create a unique drink using his ice-blending machine.
: Tequila, the key ingredient in margaritas, is made from the blue agave plant, which is native to Mexico and takes 8-12 years to fully mature!
: Yes, even your furry friends can get in on the fun! “Pooch-rita” is a dog-friendly version of the margarita made with non-alcoholic ingredients.
: The classic margarita is typically made with three main ingredients: tequila, lime juice, and triple sec. But over 50 variations exist today, from strawberry to mango and beyond!
: While it’s widely loved in the U.S., margaritas are enjoyed worldwide — particularly in places like Japan, where they’ve been popularized with a unique twist using yuzu!
: The iconic “margarita glass” (the wide, shallow glass with a long stem) was designed in the 1940s by a Mexican artist to highlight the beauty and color of the cocktail.
