Happy National Margarita Day!

Happy Friday ya'll!

Did you know that today is National Margarita Day? Well now you know! Every February 22nd from here on out you'll be prepared. 


You can thank me later ;)


Seeing how it is National Margarita Day and it's Friday, I'm bring you two, YES TWO, margarita recipes. 

But really it's just because I couldn't decide between a Pomegranate Meyer Lemon Margarita and a Blood Orange Margarita. 



And, thanks to muah, you don't have to decide either! You can have both, just like me :)




I loved loved loved both these margaritas. If you prefer your margarita's sweet, I suggest you go with the Pomegranate Meyer Lemon one, but if you like a little tang to your margarita the citrus of the Blood Oranges and Limes might just be your thang ;) 

Try on or the other, or both, but make sure you make at least one!


Happy Friday and Happy National Margarita Day Everyone!
