In Texas, margaritas are never out of season. We simply adapt them to the time of year, and fall is no exception!
With so many fall flavors to be enjoyed, putting an autumnal spin of your favorite poolside drink is easy.
Apple cider is a treat that's a bit hard to find in the south, but when you find one you love? It's amazing. My own favorite is the honey crisp apple cider from Trader Joe's. It's the perfect blend of tart and sweet...which means it's perfect for a fall margarita!
Margs are always a popular batch cocktail at my Halloween parties. When I made this for my party last year I knew I had a winner when the witches cauldron was drained in the first two hours.

If you're hung around the blog long enough, you also know that I like to keep things simple. And honestly, it doesn't get any easier than throwing all these ingredients into a cocktail shaker, shaking and pouring.
Want to make this a mocktail? Just omit the liquor! You might experiment with a dash of simple syrup to sweeten the drink up or maybe even a splash of club soda for some bubbles.
