A wise man once said, “It’s five o’clock somewhere.” While that may not be exactly factual, the sentiment rings true that somewhere, someone is getting off their work shift and enjoying a nice adult beverage. When you want to feel like you’re near an ocean or you actually have spent some of the day in the sun, a tropical drink is what oftentimes will hit the best. Margaritas are a drink that can be enjoyed by pretty much any adult and can be made different ways. You can get one on the rocks or one that’s frozen in a slush form. Both are delicious and will have you feeling great. They tend to go well with certain kinds of cuisine or are ideal for a nice winding down after work. Rather than going out to a restaurant or bar to get your own margaritas, you can get a margarita maker to enjoy them at home. We’ve highlighted five of the best margarita makers on the market to help you enjoy your five o’clock.
