49 Margarita Recipes to enjoy

THIS PAGE MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. PLEASE READ MY DISCLOSURE.

One of the great classic cocktails is the margarita. It comes in so many varieties you could have a different one every day for over a month. To prove it, I’ve got links to 49 delicious margarita recipes.

These Margarita recipes take the classic drink and re-imagine it in so many varieties you could have a different one every day for over a month. The flavors include all sorts of fruit juices, beer, chocolate and more,

Some people let the salt rim intimidate them. Don’t be like them! It’s easier than you think. I have a guide here that shows you how to rim a glass. You can use saucer, but I find it much easier to use this margarita rimmer I bought a couple of years ago. You just stamp the glass into the sponge soaked in lime juice or water, and then twist it in the compartment that holds the salt.

Need a nice set of margarita glasses? Check out this no-foolin’ big, beautiful set of Yucatan margarita glasses. Or this Artland Mingle set with a beautiful turquoise rim.

  1. My Margarita is called a Sunrise at our house. It's a Texas Margarita on the rocks with a splash of cherry juice and 3,4 cherries in the glass. Sometimes I splash the OJ and add more cherry juice. ( I use the juice from the har of cherries ).
