Each year February 22nd marks National Margarita Day, a celebration that normally welcomes the start of Spring Break season. However, with many people staying home this time around, the Marriott Resort in Puerto Vallarta has teamed up with Passport to bring you their signature margarita recipe. Now, everyone, from Alaska to New Zealand, can envision themselves on the beaches of Mexico as they sip this decadently superb cocktail.
Marriott’s margarita mixes tart citrus flavors with the subtle, floral sweetness of hibiscus flowers (also known as Jamaica flower) to create a drink that tastes like the beach in a glass. It’s sure to be the perfect escape for anyone eagerly awaiting better, warmer weather, as well as everyone who is missing vacationing at their favorite oceanside destinations.

~ 1 oz orange liqueur
~ 1 ½ oz White Casamagna Tequila
~ Dash of natural hibiscus syrup
