Happy National Margarita Day - With JOMO
A Margarita. Can you get any more classic than that? In 1947, Carlos Daniel Herrera creates The Margarita at his Rancho La Gloria bar in Mexico for actress Marjorie King who drank no other spirit but tequila. Whether it is a Spicy Marg in the afternoon or a classic Marg in the sun, a Margarita is easy to make with the perfect salty, zesty bite.
