A margarita is a cocktail consisting of tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice often served with salt on the rim of the glass. The drink is served shaken with ice (on the rocks), blended with ice (frozen margarita), or without ice (straight up). Although it has become acceptable to serve a margarita in a wide variety of glass types, ranging from cocktail and wine glasses to pint glasses and even large schooners, the drink is traditionally served in the eponymous margarita glass, a stepped-diameter variant of a cocktail glass or champagne coupe.
Try It At Home: A Topshelf Margarita is made with Silver tequila, orange liqueur and a splash of orange juice on the rocks or frozen in a jumbo glass.
There is a variety of claims as to where the Margarita originated but bottom line, Viva La Margarita!

Cinco de Mayo is Spanish for the Fifth of May. It is an annual celebration held on May 5. The date is observed to commemorate the Mexican Army’s victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla, on May 5, 1862. The victory of the smaller Mexican force against a larger French force was a boost to morale for the Mexicans.
Cinco de Mayo has become very popular in the United States, associated with the celebration of Mexican-American culture.
Cinco de Mayo is sometimes mistaken for Mexico’s Independence Day—the most important national holiday in Mexico—which is celebrated on September 16, commemorating the Cry of Dolores, which, in 1810, initiated the war of Mexican independence from Spain.
Whenever or Wherever you celebrate Cinco De Mayo, Have A Happy Day. Viva La Margarita!
