Free Advice Friday? Screw that, it’s National Margarita Day!

Oh wait, you came here for advice and “damn it!” you want your advice? Okie dokie, I advise you to go make a margarita and chill out! Did you know that margaritas have been known to temporarily solve a multitude of problems? They can create a few long term ones too- but let’s focus on the positive today.

So what are your National Margarita Day plans today? I’ll be spending the evening with my BFF Joanne, doing what we do best…beautifying the world with our stellar personalities while drinking margaritas on the rocks with salt.

Not that we need a National Margarita Day as a reason to drink them, we can find any excuse. New job? Margaritas! Bad day? Margaritas! Negative pregnancy test? Margaritas! Margaritas! Margaritas! We even had a margarita party for her 40th birthday.

Here’s Brian and I at her party. I’m about 3 margaritas in, you can tell by the bloat.

Yes, we are jackasses.

In honor of National Margarita day, I’m giving you guys the recipe for my perfect (but simple) margaritas, so that you too can celebrate!

One Classy Margarita!

Ingredients

Limes, triple sec, tequila, sugar, salt (optional if you’re a wuss)…that’s it!

Directions

Mix equal parts tequila, triple sec, and lime juice. Add 2T of sugar for every 8oz of lime juice (if that’s too sweet then I meant 2 tsp.- oops). Shake with ice. Put in a glass rimmed with salt. Drink!

Now, I’m not saying that it’s the best margarita in the world, it’s just the best one I’ve come up with so far. So if you have a favorite recipe, please share it in the comments section so I can make it tonight!

You guys, I’m so excited, I think I just wet my pants! Good thing I’m wearing panty liners. Ole!
