Summer's coming. Are you ready?

You know you'll need it in your summer repertoire. You know your friends will be asking for it. At some point this summer the question for you is: "Will you be able to satisfy your friend's needs?" Because I care, I am here to save you, and all of America, from the shame of the "disappointed guest".

When you throw down the chips, spoon out the homemade guacamole, this perfectly delicious, and perfectly balanced margarita, will put the smiles on everyone's faces. Three ingredients, made in a 2-1-1 ratio. Summer thirst quenching is that easy! Get ready, 'cause you know it's coming!!
