National Margarita Day, arguably one of the most fun holidays of the year, is coming up on Sunday, February 22nd and the award-winning Rosewood Mayakoba set in the picturesque Riviera Maya, Mexico is celebrating with Garden Margaritas. The perfect excuse to enjoy margaritas guilt-free, guests can sip the cocktail either frozen or on the rocks poolside, beachside, or at any of the property’s restaurants and bars, including the new outdoor kitchen and garden, La Ceiba.
The Garden Margarita is made with Clase Azul Tequila in light of the resort’s recent announcement that they will introduce the brand’s new 15-bottle art collection, “MEXICO a traves del tiempo,” to the public for the first time. The exclusive collection is valued at $450,000 with individual bottles for $30,000.
