Cinco de Mayo is this Sunday, which gives us all an excuse to down some tequila shots and margaritas before it's even 2 PM.
So in anticipation of the May 5th celebration, we took an office poll and made a list of 12 of our favorite margaritas around NYC.
Some of these are fruity, some are crazy strong, and still others are classically delicious with fresh lime juice and the very best Tequila.
Did we miss a great one? Sound off in the comments below.
The best classic margs are at Empellón Cocina in the East Village.
105 1st Ave.
If you're looking for a tasty, strong, and classic margarita, Empellón Cocina has you covered.
Enjoy your House Classic $12 margarita with their fresh guacamole and pickled jalapenos.
The fruitiest margs are at Dos Caminos locations around the city.
Multiple locations, including 675 Hudson St.
There are a lot of delicious, fruity margaritas in NYC, but Dos Caminos always serves them strong and not-too-sweet.
A few must-try versions include the prickly pear for $11, and the blood orange, lychee, and passion fruit for $12.
The strongest margs are at Pianos on the Lower East Side.
158 Ludlow St.
Just having one of Pianos margaritas will have you feeling buzzed.
We recommend stopping at your second $3 drink, though — things can get hazy from there on out.
