I was away visiting family this weekend and decided to make some mango margaritas. I know that frozen margaritas are a summer drink but I just couldn't help myself. I didn't have my camera on me, but it turned out to be a great recipe so I took the picture using my good old iphone.

Spicy Jalapeno Margarita

I have over 10,000 views!!!! In fact, I have 10,277 to be exact! I know that a lot of bloggers might think that its nothing, but I'm really proud that people are liking my blog and reading it! I remember the day I started my blog and being excited that 5 people had looked at it never mind 10,000. Thank you to all my subscribers and readers. To celebrate, I decided to post another margarita recipe. We all know that you can't have a true celebration without some margaritas!

This margarita has a little kick to it! It's made with jalapeno vodka!! I originally had this spicy margarita when we were in Las Vegas at Senor Frogs. You can see my Las Vegas post here. I loved it so much that I was planning on making my own jalapeno vodka by infusing it. Well, I didn't even have to! I was in the liquor store with my friend Sarah, and she pointed Stoli jalapeno vodka out to me. She knows I love my spicy stuff! I was SO excited that she found it! Its hard to describe, but it tastes a little peppery and spicy. Its delicious with margarita mix, orange juice, or tomato juice. I would even drink it on the rocks with seltzer and lime.

This recipe is really simple because I cheated slightly and used a margarita mix already premixed with tequila. I used Jose Cuervo Light Margarita mix. I tend to like the light mixers better because they are less sugary.

Ingredients:

• Jose Cuervo Light Margarita Mix
• Stoli Jalapeno Vodka
• Salt and Lime for garnish

Recipe:

• Rim a glass with salt, and fill with ice.
• Pour in two shots of vodka.
• Fill the rest of the glass with margarita mix.

Cherry Corona Rita

I am seriously hanging by the threads this week. I've been through a lot of stress at work and trying to finish up two finals. I could use one of these drinks right now!! Thankfully the summer semester is over this Thursday! I'll be having one of these drinks to celebrate.

My most popular drink on my blog so far has been the corona rita. You can see my original corona rita post here. Because I know my readers love their liquor I couldn't pass this drink up. I got the drink recipe from here and here. This drink has the same ingredients and taste as the original corona rita but has some cherry in there too! It's also extremely easy! You basically use the concentrate can as your measuring cup so there is no way to mess it up, and it eliminates dishes!! That's a win win!

I think this has a more sophisticated look than the glass with the corona bottle turned upside down into it. If you want that look though, you can just omit pouring the corona in the pitcher, and instead dump a corona right into the glass with the margarita. If you don't know what I'm talking about check out my original corona rita post!

Ingredients:
12 oz can limeade concentrate
12 oz cherry flavored 7up
12 oz tequila
12 oz corona bottle
lime, cherries, sugar/salt for garnish

Recipe: 
Pour out the corona bottle and limeade concentrate into a pitcher. Using the empty concentrate can measure out the 7up and tequila. Pour both into the pitcher as well. Garnish your glasses with lime, cherries, salt or sugar!
