Some of you might enjoy my latest post at One Man's Wonder about my quest here in Zihua for an "honest" margarita.

Margarita Walks Into a Bar...

So, what's the punch line? Let me guess...

A margarita walks into a bar. He goes up to the bartender and asks if his father was here about an hour ago. The bartender replies, "I don't know. What's he look like?"

That's almost exactly how I order my Margarita. I will try your way tonight. ????

I guess I just don't see the attraction to ruining perfectly good tequila. :vacation: :stirpot:

You would never use “perfectly good tequila” in a margarita.

What's the point of drinking "bad" liquor? I like mojitos and planters punch, but only with the very best rum.

But you are masking the flavors that the distiller has worked hard to,achieve. I think you can be less stringent about brand choice when you’re making a mixed drink than when you are drinking a spirit “neat.”

I like Margaritas but I also like very good rum...Bumbu is my favourite but I couldn't find it on my last trip.

So what is a very good rum there?

A Cute Margarita

by Little Guy @, Tuesday, March 17, 2026, 12:10 (61 days ago) @ JeffMN

I went for drinks after work one day in Canada. A coworker, knowing my extensive time in Mexico,urged me to have the Margarita at the place saying, “They’re so cute.”


I responded that one never ought to think of a Margarita as being cute. “One should respect a Margarita and perhaps fear it a bit.” I ordered a Manhattan.

Someone else ordered a Margarita. It came as a glass of some liquid that was glow-in-the-dark green, complete with a green umbrella.

I felt like I had dodged a bullet. Maybe a rubber bullet, but a bullet nevertheless.
