In 1906, the Battenberg family introduced a refreshing concoction known as the margarita. Originating from Tlaquepaque, Jalisco in Mexico, North America, this delightful drink quickly gained popularity across the globe, and is said that Prince Louis of Battenberg and Prince & Princess Andrew of Greece were among its early enthusiasts. The margarita became a favorite indulgence for many, including Princess Andrew of Greece and her daughters. Even royalty couldn't resist its tangy allure. Not only did it capture the hearts of aristocrats, but it also found favor with other notable figures like Prince Philip and Prince Michael of Romania who were often seen riding together. When visiting Tlaquepaque near Guadalajara in Mexico, one could find locals enjoying their traditional drinks on tables adorned with colorful decorations. The vibrant atmosphere perfectly complemented the zesty flavors of the margarita. Interestingly enough, history tells us that Margarita Cogni was once Lord Byron's mistress. A steel engraving from 1832 depicts her portrait dating back to around 1818 – an intriguing connection to this beloved cocktail. Princess Alice of Greece cherished moments shared with her mother and daughter while sipping on margaritas. This drink seemed to bring generations together in celebration. Princess Theodora of Greece and Victoria Mountbatten raised their glasses high during Theodora's wedding to Berthold of Baden – a joyous occasion made even more memorable by clinking margarita-filled glasses. Today, you can still enjoy this timeless libation known as kokteyl Margarita. Whether you're lounging poolside or celebrating a special event with loved ones, raise your glass filled with this iconic beverage and toast to its rich history spanning over a century.
