The start of a new month might have you thinking of how fast time goes by or patiently awaiting the seasons to change. A new month to me means new beginnings, more specifically the new Chili's margarita of the month, and February's "Hearts on Fire" margarita will seriously blow your mind.
The name Hearts on Fire is absolutely right, because when we got to try this margarita at the Delish office, we all fell in love. It's a unique drink because although it has three different kinds of liquor (yes, you read that right) you can barely tell and it's actually quite sweet.
It's made with Sauza silver tequila, Maker's Mark bourbon, and as the name hints at, Fireball whiskey. Although this might sound intimidating at first, the grenadine and fresh sour balances it all out. The fresh sour is also made at each Chili's so it really is as fresh as it claims.
When I tried the Hearts on Fire margarita, I instinctively thought it tasted like the candy hearts that pop up around February for Valentine's Day. I'm not lying when I say the combination of ingredients blends together perfectly and it doesn't taste overpowering. The glass of the marg is lined with a citrus sugar rim, so your entire sip is flavorful from start to finish.
The Hearts on Fire margarita is just $5 for the entire month of February. Grab your valentine or galentine or just an acquaintance to go try this unlikely concoction out for yourself. Cheers, y'all!
