Everywhere You Can Get Cheap Margaritas for National Margarita Day

Food holidays pose a lot of mysteries that often don't have a concrete answer. For instance: Why is National Margarita Day in February!? (If Jimmy Buffet was in charge, it would probably have landed in a warmer month.)

Answers are a bit hazy, but it was founded by a real estate agent to celebrate their love of the tequila drink. And now, restaurants across the US recognize February 22 as the annual arrival of our collective margarita festivities.
