Whether you’re celebrating National Margarita Day or simply looking for the perfect weekday sip, you’ll love these cocktails.

It’s five o’clock somewhere, but on National Margarita Day (February 22), it’s five o’clock all day! There’s no harm in kicking off the festivities early, so, without further ado, here are a few spots to sip margaritas in Westchester. We love it when the universe comes together.

Why celebrate the beloved margarita on one day only when you can do so every day for 30 days in a row? Bartaco turns National Margarita Day into a five-week-long celebration, because it’s a marathon — not a sprint. From February 22 through the end of March, this elevated taco joint launches a fresh and exciting margarita-inspired cocktail each week — not shying away from unique ingredients like watermelon, raspberry, lavender, kiwi, and more. Each featured Margarita March cocktail features Libélula tequila, the brand’s own custom blend of tequila.

Launching first is the “Sandia of Fifth,” which involves Libélula joven tequila, fresh mint, watermelon syrup, jalapeño syrup, Cachaça 51, cappelletti, lime juice, and a Tajin rim. Need we say more?

Donjito

122 Mamaroneck Ave, Mamaroneck; 914.902.5486

The Latin fusion restaurant has plenty of delish drinks on the menu, with more than the fair share being margaritas. The one that pulls ahead of the pack in our eyes is the refreshing hibiscus raspberry marg. It’s fashioned from fruit-infused tequila for a burst of flavor instead of extra sugars weighing things down.

Jack’s Bar & Restaurant

219 Main St, Eastchester; 914.652.7650

There are plenty of celebratory choices at this self-described “Irish pub with flair,” and the dragon fruit margarita (that boasts a beautiful color pink, might we add) is certainly a standout. Pro tip: Pair it with the mahi mahi fish tacos that come with an addicting mango habanero sauce (just saying).

La Casa Bronxville

7 Pondfield Rd, Bronxville; 914.222.9016

A curated marg menu awaits at this upscale yet relaxed neighborhood gem, but the one with spice goes down real nice! Ask for it by name: The La Casa Spicy Margarita, fashioned from spicy tequila, agave, and fresh lime.

La Chinita Poblana

61 Main St, Irvington; 914.231.9398

You can’t go wrong with a margarita from the marg menu at this Rivertown fave where authentic Mexican comfort fare blends seamlessly with elevated entrées (consider the oven-roasted duck with sweet-butter plantains), and a feeling of fiesta is always in the air.

LALA Taqueria

150 Larchmont Ave, Larchmont; 914.834.2244

Classic and fruity margaritas are a specialty here, but if a juicy case of indecision strikes, fall back on a flight of tequila or mezcal and thank us later.

Tipsy Taco Bar

487 E Main St, Mount Kisco; 914.218.3460
56 Garth Rd, Scarsdale; 914.574.6242

With tipsy in the title, and Wednesday being the big day, it might be worth a stop for a sip and a nosh. Sixty-plus tequilas and mezcals line the shelves, and the taco menu stands at 14-strong.

Truck

391 Old Post Rd, Bedford; 914.234.8900

And now for something completely different: a red mandarin margarita! It pairs perfectly with New Mexican-inspired cuisine that sways seasonal and local. We’ll drink to that!

VEGA

189 E. Hartsdale Ave, Hartsdale; 914.723.0010

The margarita offerings are endless here, where owner Jeevan Pullan has been known to gush: “I love all things Mexican.” That’s abundantly evident in the crave-worthy eats (Don’t miss the birria soup. Yes, soup.) and the Spicy Diablo margarita, made with in-house infused jalapeno tequila, passion fruit, and fresh lime.
