The Drink is Named after a lady named Margarita. ---Who'da damn thunk it?!
The original Margarita was invented in 1948 by socialite (and obvious alcoholic) Margarita Sames. According to the legend it was during a party at her cliffside hacienda in Acapulco that Margarita began experimenting with “the drink”. Looking for something to cut the dust of a hot afternoon, she mixed Tequila Herradura, Cointreau and fresh lime juice. Her cocktail kept the party going for two weeks and today the Margarita is the #1 most popular cocktail in the U.S.
We will begin hosting a monthly soiree called Red Lipstick and Martini's (Margarita, same thing)---; it is a party we developed where we display sterling silver on art pieces I've painted. It is based around this theme I have where women can be women, short tall skinny not-so-skinny, successful, getting there, married, single, lesbian, downright confused or otherwise. I have these illustrations called Le Salon Rouge; they are my french harlots (please don't ask me why I just love french harlotry hehe)-----but they can be whoever you want them to be: They have their rollers in, they are smoking a cigarette, their hair might be a mess, they might be protesting for women's rights; who knows----but they are glamorous and beautiful. So I had five framed illustrations and we played some awesome games and some women won an original illustration:) Check out
the pics:) First, check out my very own Strawberry Margarita: I use sugar on the rim, OF COURSE---who the hell wants a salty mass in their mouth?
I'm about to go drink this....lol
Business cards with my Le Salon Rouge Ladies all over. Loves it.
