So I admit that when it comes to cocktails (or any alcohol) I am a lightweight of epic proportions. I don't drink just anything, I drink stuff that tastes good because let's face it, I'm not in college anymore. I'm a sophisticated adult that enjoys a quality adult beverage. Okay, so maybe I'm not sophisticated, but you get the idea.
When it comes to enjoying an afternoon in the backyard with friends during the summer season, I enjoy having ample options for my guests. A margarita is a delicious treat to serve as a beverage option for your adult guests.
