This illustration by Lotza celebrates one of the most iconic cocktails in global mixology: the Margarita. Made with tequila, fresh lime juice, and orange liqueur, this cocktail combines freshness, acidity, and sweetness in a perfect balance that makes it a staple in bars around the world.

The origin of the Margarita is shrouded in legend and multiple stories. The most widespread version places its creation in the 1930s or 1940s in Tijuana, Mexico. There, a young woman named Margarita is said to have inspired the bartender who, unsure of what to serve her, improvised this bold and refreshing concoction. Other stories attribute the cocktail's invention to a Texan bartender in the 1940s or to American tourists visiting Mexico in the 1930s.

Whatever the historical truth, the Margarita has become a festive and convivial symbol, representing both Mexican cultural richness and the art of the cocktail. With its many variations, from the classic served with salt on the rim to modern creations enhanced with fruit and spices, the Margarita continues to inspire lovers of refined drinks.
