This world famous drink is a wonderful, fun cocktail drink served over crushed ice in a salt rimmed glass. The Margarita originates from Mexico in the 1930s and 40s. There are many versions of the story surrounding the specific circumstances of how it came to be but virtually all of them involve a Mexican bartender skilfully concocting the drink in honour of a lady.
