History

Citrus freshness with tequila's agave notes served chilled.

The Margarita cocktail's origins are debated, with several claims to its invention. One popular story credits its creation to Marjorie King, a showgirl who frequented bars in Tijuana, Mexico, in the 1930s. She purportedly had an allergy to all alcohol except tequila. Carlos "Danny" Herrera, owner of the Rancho La Gloria restaurant between Tijuana and Mexicali, is said to have created the drink for her in 1938. He mixed tequila with lime juice and Cointreau, naming it after Marjorie, whose nickname was "Margarita."
