8 Fabulous Ways to Celebrate National Tequila Day

Happy National Tequila Day! In the last few months I have discovered a new found appreciation for tequila. Cuervo Gold had been my favorite. I am not sure if my palette has changed or just that this tequila is that good, but I find it smooth and sweet.

Although I am not a spirit connoisseur, I can tell you it is my new favorite spirit!

My appreciation for the cocktails has carried over to our dinner table. I found tequila to be amazing in a marinade. Margarita Chicken is the best chicken I have ever had! Chad will very happily second that. As long as I am making it again. Lastly, tequila has shown up on the dessert table too. This awesome Boozy Margarita Cupcake is definitely something to put on your list to make.

Enjoy! Happy National Tequila Day, or whatever excuse I can find for enjoying this spectacular spirit!

Strawberry Lime Margarita

Welcome to TSRI's Summer Grilling Celebration! It's Ladies Night and tonight we are fixing the most fantastic cocktail to top off the Knock Your Socks Off Tex-Mex Burger that we wrote about yesterday.

I know we have had a few Margaritas in the last month, but I can't help myself. When I discuss cocktails with TSRI's Mixologist and Cocktail Artist, Chad I always have a rather convincing argument when it comes to Margaritas. This week it was only logical to make a margarita to go with the Tex-Mex burger we were featuring. Either way, my drink request and his mouthwatering creation...

Cinco de Mayo Cocktails

Its time for our Cinco de Mayo cocktail round up! We have had some real fun putting these drinks together for you. It has been an amazing month of tequila cocktails. We got a great deal on Jose Cuervo Gold a while back and had bought a bottle, it was sitting at the back of the liquor cabinet when we started planning this months cocktails. I wasn't a big tequila fan (I really do remember the saying "One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, FLOOR"). Not one to take chances as an adult I can say I haven't had it in many years (probably since college). Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised to find I reallllllly like this tequila. We have since purchased another bottle and now have 4 FABULOUS tequila cocktails to add to the Cinco de Mayo Cocktail Round Up!

Puckered Jalapeño Frozen Margarita

Happy Ladies Night! I am so excited about this last cocktail creation for Cinco de Mayo. We have had a fantastic month of Cinco de Mayo cocktails and will be sharing an amazing Cinco de Mayo cocktail roundup this afternoon. If you missed our Cinco de Mayo party food round up you can check it out here.

Over the last year Chad has been infusing alcohol with various different things. Some have been a major stroke of genius and others just a major pain to clean up after (hint: marshmallows and vodka=bad infusion mess). So I suggested getting into the produce and infusing a jalapeño into something (I am really inventive like that when it comes to drinks). Chad the "Master of Cocktail Artistry" managed my favorite all time cocktail. I know I have said that a few drinks along the way were a favorite or made the top 5, but this one beat them ALL out!
