| Comments: A margarita made with freshly squeezed limes and good-quality tequila is a simple pleasure you can easily enjoy at home. Having an easy to use (and easy to clean) citrus juicer makes juicing a bag of limes quick and effortless! Kick your feet up this weekend, relax, and take your sweet time sipping a slushy blended margarita with a side of corn tortilla chip and salsa. Or enjoy a thirst-quenching margarita on the rocks as you sit down to your Cinco de Mayo feast. Either way, serving margaritas in their signature wide-mouth, long stem glasses adds to the festive and indulgent pleasure! |
