Oh man, what did I do last night? I can't remember anything... Well, I remember talking to that girl about the difference between high fructose corn syrup and sugar... I also remember running up seven flights of stairs in the parking garage, but the rest of it is just – wait. Why are my shoes wet?
If this sounds familiar to you, you've probably been bitten by tequila on at least one occasion. It is for this particular reason that I tend to stay away from tequila as anything more than a margarita mixer. Shots, neat, or on the rocks

The High-Roller
by Michele on February 21st, 2011 | Margaritas
As we announced last week, tomorrow is National Margarita Day. If you're planning on celebrating at home, we have another margarita suggestion.
Although we all have our go-to recipes or margarita mixes, sometimes it is fun to give a new recipe a try. If you're looking for something a little more elegant, The High-Roller may be the drink for you. Made with Grand Marnier instead of triple sec and Cuervo Reserva de la Familia, you have a margarita that transforms this beverage from an everyday classic to an elegant cocktail.

Watermelon and Apple Margarita
by Michele on February 16th, 2011 | Cocktails, Margaritas
February is a month filled with small, yet memorable, holidays. From Groundhog Day to Valentine's Day to Presidents' Day, we recognize each to varying degrees. Obviously, out of those three Valentine's Day is the biggest. Other the past few weeks we provided two different cocktail recipes to use for that holiday. Neither Groundhog Day nor Presidents' Day have garnered any cocktail love, but there is a new-to-me holiday that will be receiving a recipe in its honor- National Margarita Day.
Seriously, this is a holiday that is being recognized on February 22nd. Being a Tuesday, it may or may not be
