I’m a big fan of margaritas, especially in the summer. There is nothing like the enticing smell of juicy burgers,a little Bob Marley music playing in the background, and an icy cold margarita in hand when entertaining friends on the deck.
A few months back my friend Sohiela invited me to her home for dinner. An evening of food and drinks at the Mirsharif’s home is always a welcome experience because she makes some of my favorite Persian dishes.
When we arrived, Sohiela was making a batch of Meyers lemon coconut margaritas. A unique twist on the usual margarita that Sohiela proudly calls her own creation. It’s a little sour, a little tropical, and a little spicy all rolled into one refreshing drink. Now I have a brand new reason to love margaritas. Cheers!
