Winning Wine Wednesdays: National Margarita Day Is Coming!



What's better than a margarita on a hot summer day? Celebrating National Margarita Day in the middle of February!  Friday, February 22nd is the official holiday for the drink (and, no, you cannot take off work for this)!

Instead, you can imbibe margaritas at several margarita-sanctioned establishments here in Chicago, and nationally as well.




Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville restaurants nationwide will be celebrating all things margarita for National Margarita Day on February 22nd.  This year's holiday will feature an array of margarita-related activities, specials, contests and giveaways guaranteed to be the perfect mix of sweet and sour.

As part of the one-day celebration, Margaritaville will host Margaritaville University, a complimentary margarita-making class from 3pm to 4pm.  At the university, Margaritaville bartenders will teach students how to make specialty Margaritaville margaritas. After mastering mixing, shaking, stirring and sipping, all graduates will receive a diploma.

In addition to the complimentary drink lessons, Margaritaville locations are inviting guests in for their new tradition, The National Margarita Day Toast.  At 5 O'Clock, a Master of Ceremonies will lead those gathered in a toast to the official beverage of Margaritaville.

Margaritaville Chicago restaurant is located at 700 E. Grand #118 at Navy Pier. For more information on Friday's activities call (312) 496-3842.

Other locales to tie-on a few margaritas in Chicago on Friday are listed below!
