BLUE MARGARITA

Margaritas are a popular choice for many people who drink them, but they can also be pretty dull in color. They're usually either red or orange due to the colors of their flavorings (usually Cointreau).But if you want your margarita to take on different hues than just those two ones and have it still taste as good, try using Blue Curaçao instead! Add this sweet liqueur into your usual recipe for a Blue Margarita with an exception - its beautiful blue shade will give guests something new to look at while sipping away.
