Marga-rona

WOOHOO!!!  My parents are taking us out to eat tonight for Adam's birthday (this past Sunday) and Adam picked this awesome Mexican food place that's up the street from our house.  The only thing about it that I side-eye, is that they have a drink called the "Marga-rona".  It's a regular old margarita with a Corona dumped upside down in it.  Um... that sounds disgusting.  Why not just add some tequila to your beer?  VOM.

Re: Marga-rona

  • My grandma offered to take HH and I out for his birthday (last Sunday) and he refused. Well he's so laid back he was like "meh - it doesnt matter". I was upset - I could have used a Marga-rona or two! Just kidding...that things sounds nasty.

    have you seen the drink that is like a bloody mary but they put Dos Equis in it? I love bloody mary's but dont think i could have one w/ beer in it...yuck!

    ETA: totally just realized our husbands have the same birthday!

  • There are just certain things that you should not mix beer with.  We took my dad to the same Mexican place for last Father's Day and I had a bloody mary... I apparently don't like bloody marys.  It was gross and our server didn't make us pay for it because I took like 2 sips out of it and then couldn't handle it... It tasted like I was drinking straight up pepper.

  • Yeah, you can usually order them "spicy" or not. I don't get the spicy kind for that reason. Or it might have come from a pre-made mix which is usually gross too. Made the right way they are delicious!
  • Sounds like fun! I love Mexican food =]

    My HH's birthday is today, he didn't want to go out and he wouldn't let me have him a party. He's all about celebrating my birthday big, but when it comes to his own he's no fun lol

    I ordered it not spicy because I can't stand spicy stuff.  I had a bloody mary in Jamaica that was decent (because Adam went behind the bar and made it himself since he knows what I will and will not like... haha).

    We usually don't do anything big for birthdays.  I mean, we usually go out to eat and have a few drinks, but that's usually it.

  • The beer with tomato juice is called a Red beer and is very popular with the cowboys from the Rodeo. I think it looks disgusting but they swore it cured their hangovers. I have found another drink of any kind is a cure for a hangover oh well!!!  

    I don't get the whole big hype about birthdays. My darling husband won't let us do anything for his birthday but he takes the whole week off generally and he took the whole week of my birthday off and we went to california. I don't know but I think a dinner is always a nice way to go. Enjoy mexican I love mexican hmmm actually might have to call in an order on the way home wooohooo!!!

    Yay!  How old is yours?  Adam turned the big 3-0.

  • Kevin turned 26.

    Adam does not look like he's 30! 

  • Men in his family age well.  His hairline is slightly starting to recede though, which of course I give him crap for ALL.THE.TIME!!

  • Anybody watch Jersey Shore? One one of the more recent episodes, Snooki and another girl (her friend from out of town, maybe) ate lunch at this outdoor restaurant and they had the HUGEST drink that looked like a margarita and it had TWO beer bottles upside down in it.  They ordered this in the middle of the day.

    Is there a problem with this?

    srsly. A "lobsterita" aka the giant margarita from Red Lobster at lunch = win.  I may have a problem...

    My mom's birthday was Monday.  She decided she wanted to go get dessert at the Cheesecake Factory (my dad always makes her a special birthday dinner, so we don't usually go out for dinner).  Then later that day she decided that she'd rather wait until next weekend because she is tired from work this week. UMMMM, this is totally about me and my dessert needs. jerk.

  • Marga-rona = Gross

    Margarita = Alcoholic Goodness

    You now have me craving enchiladas and margaritas.  Too bad I have to settle for pork chops and mashed potatoes from a box...Dan is cooking.  Booo!  But I hope you had a great dinner.

  • my best friend regularly makes "beer- ritas" .... I have no interest in trying them haha
  • I love margaritas. I love beer. I do not think that I would like a combination of the two at ALL.

    I don't get the big fuss about birthdays, either. I have a coworker well into her 60's who refuses to work on her birthday, her husband's birthday, or their anniversary. Whereas my birthday  falls during a mandatory all-campus multiple-day workshop every year-- I always have to go in early and stay late that day! We do try to go out for dinner, though.

  • Yeah, I'm pretty sure you shouldn't mix beer with ANYTHING.
