Margaritas
Everyone loves margaritas! They are a favorite cocktail for many and a special summer pleasure. But what we love about them, specifically, is the mix of a few grain of crunchy crushed salt from the rim combined with citrusy-sweet liquid. Because of this, many of you are know to lick salt, tajin or sugar from the rim of the glass or rotate the glass so we can sip all the way around the rim and eventually get all the salt, tajin, or sugar and enjoy every single sip until it’s all gone and ready to order another margarita.
