My favorite Mexican restaurant has a margarita list two pages long. Different tequilas, different mixers, and one outcome – a kick ass cocktail. Over the years I’ve sampled enough of their margaritas to hone in on the best margarita recipe. And with my birthday just around the corner, you can bet I’ll be sipping a [...]
I love Hawaiian vacations, and a great tropical drink served on the islands is the Mai Tai. Every time I go to Hawaii (and I’ve been there a lot), I head straight for a bar and ask them to shake up their best Mai Tai recipe.
