5 Premium Recipes for National Margarita Day

by David Klemt

Código 1530 Tequila Rosa Blasberry Margarita

National Margarita Day is just around the corner and our friends at Código 1530 Tequila sent us five recipes for your cocktail menu.

For years, the Margarita has reigned supreme, steadily claiming the number-one spot on most-popular cocktail lists around the world. While this cocktail is now seeing its grip on the crown loosened by the Negroni and Old Fashioned, it’s hard to ignore the lure of a well-made Marg.

That’s even more true when its made with incredible tequila.

Each delicious, refreshing recipe below is made with super-premium Código 1530 Blanco or Rosa. However, you and your bar team should certainly experiment with other expressions in the range.

Considering the quality of Código 1530, operators can boost revenue by charging a premium for these magnificent Margs.
