I am in rhubarb heaven here in Colorado! Growing up I had rhubarb every summer when I would go visit family in Montana. My grandparents and aunts grew rhubarb in their backyards and I loved to go cut big pieces of stalks and watch them make it into all sorts of baked goods. It was always one of my favorite things about going out there since it wasn’t something we had in Florida.

Being my first full Spring in Colorado I wasn’t sure how much rhubarb there would be out here. I was thrilled when I walked into the store a couple of weeks ago and saw huge amounts of it waiting for me to turn it into rhubarb margaritas and whatever else I desired!

Rhubarb Margaritas

To continue my recipes for cinco de mayo I of course had to make some margaritas! I have been making margaritas since I was old enough to use the blender. My parents for some reason thought it was a good idea for a twelve-year-old to make their margaritas. I of course never drank them and it was the only drink they would have me make. Whatever their reasoning was, I became a margarita maker extraordinaire.

Back then I only made the traditional margarita. A traditional margarita is a classic for a reason and I have always been a fan of not messing too much with classics.
