COCKTAIL RECIPE
Margarita
The perfect harmony of tequila and lime is complemented by a slight sweetness and salty edge. An iconic drink for hot days.
The Margarita is a cocktail born in the coastal towns of Mexico in the 1930s and 1940s, shaped by the warm climate and sea breeze. While tequila was the characteristic drink of the region at the time, the addition of lime and Cointreau created a refreshing and balanced flavor.
According to the best-known story, a bar owner or bartender wanted to offer a special drink to an American female customer, so he combined tequila, lime juice and Cointreau to create the Margarita. The name comes from the Spanish word "margarita" (daisy) and refers to the elegant, slightly floral and refreshing character of this drink.
