    Houston Margarita Trail Finale Party

    /

    The quest to discover the “best margarita in Houston” was crowned to Los Tios Mios, winning the title at the Houston Press finale night for the 2021 Margarita Trail. Los Tios Mios margarita recipe featured fresh pineapple and jalapeno paired with El Jimador tequila.  All of the margaritas at the party featured El Jimador tequila. The recipes varied from margaritas featuring champagne to blackberries. I had never had El Jimador tequila before this event, but I would definitely order it again.  At the Margarita Trail Finale party, we tried margarita recipes from Houston area hot spots. The recipes were interesting to try, and I can’t wait to recreate these drinks…
