National Margarita Day Celebrated Today

by Daun Lee

Today is National Margarita Day most likely to gain popularity with fans of the tasty drink. When you are at your favorite Mexican restaurant or at a popular bar you have probably never contemplated the refreshing drinks origin. Today is the day you learn about the drinks history while you imbibe. There are numerous stories about the original creator and no consensus has been reached on who first created the drink. The name of the drink however comes from a San Antonio society lady named Mrs. William (Margarita ) Sames who served the drink at 1948 cocktail party in Acapulco. Maybe in the future this will become a popular holiday.

Tequila is the key ingredient of the Margarita and is America’s favorite cocktail. So go ahead and enjoy today’s celebration but not too much, otherwise a DUI and DUI lawyers could be in your future. Lots of people like a celebration and many times this leads to an error in judgment.

The lowered inhibitions caused by over indulging in alcohol lead people to believe they can drive while under its influence. When faced with a drunken driving charge the best option is to hire a DUI attorney to get you out the sticky situation. DUIs entail stiff penalties, the loss of your driver’s license and possible jail time. Don’t let a DUI make you miss future Margarita Days, if you get a dui find the right DUI lawyer to speak for you in court.
