We just celebrated Cinco de Mayo, so naturally my thoughts are turning to margaritas. One of my favorite gifts is this personalized margarita set from Personalization Mall.

Perfect for sipping your favorite tequila drinks on the deck or patio (or indoors, if the weather doesn’t favor being in the sun), this 7 piece set includes 6 traditional margarita glasses and a personalized pitcher. Just whip up your favorite margarita recipe, add some nachos and you’ve got an instant party!

Margarita Recipes

Don’t have a favorite margarita recipe? Try some of these (maybe not all at once – after all, tomorrow is a work day)! Since I’m at work, I haven’t had a chance to personally try all these recipes – but I’m working on it. Please let me know how these recipes work out for you.

• Jimmy Buffet’s Perfect Margarita Recipe – You know Jimmy knows his margaritas!
• Spicy Mango Margaritas – Warning – the pictures on this site will probably have you booking a trip to Cabo San Lucas.
• Blue Margarita Recipe – Brightly colored drinks always scream “PARTY” to me!
• Beer Margaritas – Unique recipe that calls for beer as well as tequila – don’t know if that helps or hurts a hangover?
• Homemade Strawberry Margaritas – Also includes directions for making your own sweet and sour mix.
• Watermelon and Apple Margarita – An interesting concotion, created in honor of Margarita Day (Feb. 22, 2011)

Fun Food To Serve

What’s a margarita without Mexican food, other than a recipe for a hangover? Try some of these spicy recipes:

• Authentic Chicken Fajitas – Spicy but worth it!
• Pulled Pork Nachos – an interesting change from the usual chili nachos
• Shrimp Quesadilla Recipe – Perfect, even if you don’t have a view of the ocean.
• Flank Steak Tacos with Cilantro Lime Marinade – Warning – these gorgeous photos will make you feel starving!
