Although many believe that Ernest Hemingway is the person we have to thank for the Margarita, there is a lot of evidence that points to the contrary.
The earliest mention of a cocktail specifically named Margarita was in 1953 in Esquire magazine, which describes how to make this south-of-the-border quencher.
