National Margarita Day is February 22, 2020! It is said to be one of the most popular national food day observances — which are completely made-up holidays, of course.
Still, as mixed cocktails go, there is something special about this mixture of tequila, triple sec, and lime juice, whether you like it with or without salt, on the rocks or frozen, or in a fruity flavor.
When life hands you limes, make margaritas!
Here’s our list of all things tequila this year. It’s likely to keep growing right up until the big day, as we learn of new events and deals.
Do you know of a National Margarita Day that isn’t on our list? Email the details to editor@atlantaonthecheap.com and we’ll add it!
Some of these deals run more than a single day, so check the dates. On The Border is running its margarita deals nearly all month, from Feb. 1st thru 22nd, for example.
