Margarita Monday should be everyday. For those of us who need a drank and pizza you could head over to Wood & Fire, in Pleasantville … or you can try out our dope classic margarita recipe without all the fruity frills.

We created this DIY recipe for a classic margarita and it is seriously good and seriously easy.

Pizza might not be the best combo with margaritas so try pairing this drink with the perfect guacamole and some fresh salsa.
