Our Favorite Margarita Recipes ~ Happy Cinco de Mayo (Philadelphia Event Planner)

We LOVE Cinco de Mayo!  No, I don’t have any ethnic connections with the holiday, I simply love margaritas.  They are my absolute favorite drink.  As you may, or may not know, I have years of bartending experience.  From this experience, I know in a busy bar how time consuming they are to make, and usually refrain from ordering them. . . 
BUT on Cinco de Mayo I get a free pass

Here are some recipes of our personal favorites.  Enjoy!

** If you are in a rush and you can find Friday’s Margarita mix it is the best!  To add it into any of these recipes simply take out the lime juice and triple sec/Cointreau.

Classic Margarita

1.75 oz Jose Cuervo Tequila

2 oz Roses Lime Juice

1 oz Triple Sec

*To get the salt to stick to the rim, dip it in lime juice, or rub a lime around the rim.  Then dip it into the salt.

**To make this a Golden Margarita, add 1 oz of Gran Mariner.
