Kate's dad, Ron, had lost the recipe that he liked. Then they completely stopped drinking alcohol while we were under 21." My aunt and uncle have described how he would put ice in the blender to crush it for the drinks. "Apparently before they had kids, my dad was quite the margarita maker.
It makes me laugh too! Although, a pitcher of margaritas sounds perfect for an evening with friends, don't you think? That's 4 shots of tequila per person, and my parents rarely drink." My dad has it written on a manila file folder. I don't drink a lot of margaritas, but about 5 years ago, my friend Kate noted that her dad "makes a killer margarita," and of course, we all had to get the recipe. Interestingly, margarita means daisy in Spanish (per Difford's Guide).Īnother interesting tidbit: the world's first frozen margarita machine was invented in 1971 (per Smithsonian magazine's history of the margarita). Related drinks are sours (like a daiquiri, which is rum, lime juice, and sugar), and daisies, which are mixed drinks with orange liqueur and citrus. ( Wikipedia cites several claims of invention, of course.) By 1945, Jose Cuervo was using a margarita recipe to advertise its tequila. Generally, it seems that the margarita was developed in the 1930s in Mexico. Just like many other cocktails, many people lay claim to inventing the margarita. Save all that super-sweet stuff for another time.
