So it came to my attention late yesterday afternoon that it was National Margarita Day! I already had Turkey Chili on the menu and thought what else would go better with chili than a stiff margarita?? I luckily already had all the ingredients for one of my favs, the blood orange margarita! It’s so delish and easy I thought I would share! I may have missed sharing it with you on the official holiday but luckily it’s thirsty thurday! And the weekend is right around the corner.
