Besides… we MUST celebrate National Margarita Day, RIGHT?! Â Not only am I celebrating this day in honor of margaritas, I’m celebrating because of great news with my dog Baby at the vet earlier today. Â
I haven’t said much about it because I’ve been kinda trying to tuck it away in the back of my mind while we are dealing with her eye problem. Â When I got the advanced blood work done before her eye surgery last month, her liver count was up and we had to put her on meds for it. Â There was a possibility it could have been a cancerous tumor. Â I’ve been through that with my last two boxers and it was totally heart-wrenching.
But HOORAY! Â Her test came back normal today… the meds are working. Â Hallelujah! Â
Now off to the specialist next week to get this eye taken care of…
About this margarita… It’s so incredibly easy to make. Â Oh, and did I mention insanely delicious?! Â Your simple ingredients are silver tequila, pineapple juice, triple sec, lime juice and kosher salt. Â Garnish with fresh pineapple and lime wedges to make it all pretty if you want.
Check out the video! Â
Cheers to Baby’s good news and Margarita Day!
Love margaritas as much as I do? Â Check out all of my other margarita recipes!

This was delicious!! Only reason I didn’t do five stars is because you DEFINITELY should add more tequila:) I also did a salt/sugar/chili powder rim whic was perfect for this! But be careful: these go down REAL smooth
Diane
My husband grilled the pineapple on the grill ,then we put in a blender then stained it,,,,OMG!!!!!

I tied this and was a little skeptical based on how simply it was but it is legit. Excellent drink and so easy to make! I added a little jalapeño in the shaker to give it some kick too.

Looks wonderful. What’s a “part?” An ounce, a jigger?
P.S. my dog is having great results on medication for liver disease, good luck. Our eye surgeon is wonderful….
Amy @ The Blond Cook
Hey, Paige! A “part” is basically a ratio measurement… depends on how big your glass is! 🙂 So glad to hear your fur baby is doing better, too!
