National Margarita Day is today, smack dab in the middle of winter. Many people think of Margaritas as a summer cooler. A date in February was selected, as Margaritas can be enjoyed any time of the year. There's all kinds of flavors, from strawberry and peach to mango and berry, and much more. Almost any fruit you can imagine can be used to make the perfect Mexican Margarita.

Margaritas are comprised of tequila, citrus or other fruits, and sugar. It is the most popular alcoholic beverage that uses Tequila. Margaritas are poured over ice, or can be put through a blender to make frozen margaritas.

Historically, Margaritas have been around since the 1930s and 1940s. The actual origin and creator is unknown. Frozen Margaritas came on the scene in the 1970s.

Todd McCalla, the creator of this day, started it to "celebrate Margaritas, plain and simple".

So, lift your glass and celebrate National Margarita Day

Did you know that the social media accounts you follow can affect how successful you will be at achieving your goals? Andrea Leifer, PT, DPT, CLT, understands that while social media posts have the potential to lift us up and encourage us to support others – they also have the potential to bring us down, question our own self-worth, or reinforce thoughts of frustration if we let it. A goal that you once thought might be too hard might seem a little easier to reach if you monitor what you follow.
