Fuego Mango Margarita

Fuego Mango Margarita
The Margarita is a popular tequila based cocktail that dates back to the 1930s. One of the earliest stories is of the margarita being invented in 1938 by Carlos "Danny" Herrera at his restaurant Rancho La Gloria, halfway between Tijuana and Rosarito, Baja California, created for customer and former Ziegfeld dancer Marjorie King, who was allergic to many spirits, but not to tequila. The Fuego Mango is a spicy tropical take on this old favorite recipe. The combination of Chili Lime Salt and Cajun seasoning adds an unexpected kick to this refreshing cocktail!
