 Luxury Cocktails: Awww...the crisp chill of a frozen margarita on a hot summer day or night. Blended or on the rocks, tequila takes any ordinary cocktail to a whole new level. With a perplexing array of choices behind the bar, it can often take more time deciding which liquor the bartender should pour than it does to summon up the courage to ask that lonely barfly for a dance.
