The combination of margaritas and tacos is hard to match. Tacos are usually light and flavorful which compliments the subtle tartness of margaritas.

And the summer season is a perfect time to enjoy the light and refreshing pair!

These stone fruits are easily cherished and enjoyed by everyone in the family— It’s something refreshing and delicious to look forward to towards the end of the summer!
