Not only is it a sunny Saturday (finally) but it’s also National Margarita Day. And that, my friends, is reason to celebrate it-and-of itself. Whether you prefer to sip yours frozen with a brain-freeze, or on the rocks with plenty of salt – you can find all types of margaritas flowing throughout the Hub. So plan your liquid lunch or dinner, accordingly. We’ve rounded up a few spots where you can find them – as well as some Boston bars serving up special margaritas and deals today only. Happy drinking!
Border Café
This Harvard Square spot is always a favorite. Open from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m., this joint serves up multiple types of margaritas including strawberry and melon, per their menu.
Lolita
This Back Bay spot celebrates National Margarita Day, every day – but this Saturday is no exception. Try a glass or a pitcher of Lolita Margarita with zapopen reposado, combier liqueur, cane sugar syrup, and grapefruit.
MET Back Bay
For a twist on the traditional margarita, head to Met Back Bay for their Sweet Devil cocktail. This $12 marg includes tequila, lemon, chartreuse, honey syrup, and cracked pepper. You can find it in both their bar and dining room from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. today.

Where better to celebrate National Margarita Day than at a tequila bar (am I right?). Try one of their tequila snow cones or Rona Ritas anytime from 11:30 a.m. until 1 a.m. And we also heard that in honor of National Margarita Day, the restaurant will be serving a special margarita for its guests.
