Happy National Margarita Day!

Today is National Margarita day! I wanted to celebrate this special occasion with three recipes. Dinner, dessert and of course a cocktail. So even if you gave up drinking for lent, you can still enjoy one of these delicious recipes.

Margarita Chicken Tacos

Margarita Cupcakes

Pitcher Perfect Margarita

Perfect for crowds, super easy and delish!

Makes: About 24 servings

For the margarita:
8 cups cold water
1 liter 100 percent agave tequila, chilled
2 (12-ounce) cans frozen limeade, thawed in the refrigerator
4 ounces frozen concentrated orange juice (1/2 cup), thawed
1/4 cup bottled lime juice

To serve:
Ice (optional)
4 medium limes, each cut into 6 wedges
Rich Simple Syrup (optional)
Salt (optional)

Place all the ingredients in a large pitcher or container (at least 1-gallon capacity) and stir to evenly combine. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. Stir before serving.

To serve:
Serve the mixed margarita up or over ice in a chilled margarita glass with a lime wedge.
Alternatively, to serve over ice with salt, fill a small, shallow dish with simple syrup and a second small, shallow dish with salt. Dip the rim of a glass in the simple syrup, then in the salt. (If you don’t have simple syrup, rub a lime wedge on the rim to moisten.) Add ice and top with the mixed margarita. Serve with a lime wedge.

And if you are looking for a Skinny Margarita recipe. I have one here.
