A margarita is a Summer classic and one of America’s most popular cocktails for a reason. It’s delicious! The acidic bite of the lime mixed with the smokiness of the tequila is pure heaven when paired with tacos. In this version, the citrus nature of the drink is amped up thanks to the addition of Cointreau, an orange flavored liqueur. Now the bigger question is do you prefer your margarita on the rocks or frozen?
