Happy National Margarita Day!

You might think that the month of February already has too many holidays. Well, here’s a holiday we can all get behind. Join us this Friday as we celebrate National Margarita Day.

 

Yep. It’s a thing.

Cocktail GlassThe Binny’s Margarita

 

2oz Don Julio Blanco
3/4oz Gran Torres
1/4 to 1/2oz Agave Nectar (Add more or less to taste)
2 1/2oz Fresh Lemon/Lime juice blend (Add more or less to taste)

 

   Give it a quick shake, strain over ice and garnish with a slated rim and lime wheel.
