National Margarita Day

There’s nothing like waking up on a lazy Sunday morning to find out that it’s National Margarita Day! How this glorious event almost slipped by me is unimaginable since margaritas are my go-to cocktail when I’m not certain how an establishment makes a perfectly pink pomtini. Thank you to my ever diligent husband for bringing this to my attention whether there be ulterior motives involved or he’s just looking forward to cocktail time tonight while I tune into the Oscars.  Since it’s before noon and I’m still on my first cup of girlie (hazelnut) coffee, I thought I’d search Pink Martinis and Pearls and bring up everything margaritas!

From fruity fresh margaritas to prickly pear margaritas and margarita themed cookies, it’s here and recipes and DIY treat tutorials are just a click away!  Que tengas buen dia!

Talk about gathering  round the water cooler!  🙂

I wrote a post on how to decorate margarita cookies but this time I made the… [Read More]

They’re not just for Cinco de Mayo anymore. Do you like traditional margaritas or strawberry?Let’s start with the cookie garnishes for margaritas. I wanted to have a little sparkle. What better place than on the garnish?Strawberries! I used a small strawberry cutter then iced the cookies in red. While the icing was still wet I covered them with Dicso Dust in Strawberry.You must cover them completely to get this effect. The random sprinkle will look like a random sprinkle. No… [Read More]
