In the mood to chill out with a refreshing cocktail? Our very own Chef Danielle has you covered with two tasty twists on the go-to summertime drink: margaritas.

‍

If you’re feeling something tart and citrusy, the Grapefruit Margarita will quench your thirst. Or you can take a more adventurous route with a Golden Kiwi Margarita, which puts our Energizing Green Juice to delicious use. Either way, you can’t go wrong when fruit and tequila are involved.

‍

(Psst—they both pair perfectly with Sea Salt Cauliflower Tortilla Chips and Green Chile Chicken Tacos. Cheers!)
