The Best Margarita Flavor for Each Zodiac Sign

Aries: Spicy Turmeric Margarita

Ready to get the party started, Aries? You’re an adventurous risk-taker who loves to try new things. You crave anything hot and spicy with a dash of sweetness when it comes to food. The perfect margarita flavor for you will have all your favorite classic tastes… with a twist! That’s why a spicy turmeric margarita is the ideal drink to match your bold and fiery energy. “With Aries being ruled by the fiery planet Mars, having a little heat in their margarita could give just the right kick that a fire sign like Aries tends to love,” says Tejeda. Add a splash of orange juice to cool things off, or garnish with spicy salt for even more heat.

Taurus: Lavender Honey Margarita

It's time to indulge, Taurus. You're a lover of the finer things in life, which means you have your favorites when it comes to food and drinks. While it can be hard to get you to venture outside your comfort zone, you're not so stubborn that you'd turn down the chance to try something new and intriguing. So, why not give a new flavor margarita a try? "Ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty, Taurus tends to enjoy things that are a treat for the senses: that's what makes a lavender margarita a great fit for this earth sign," says Tejeda. We also recommend adding honey and sugar to the rim for extra sweetness.

Gemini: Key Lime Beergarita

Ready for a twist, Gemini? You're someone who loves to try new things and mix things up for a fresh result. Geminis are famous for being charming and chatty, so you need a margarita flavor that matches your bright, bubbly aura. That's why we think a Key Lime Beergarita will be perfect for you. "With Gemini being a sign that loves contrasting flavors and bold new experiences, a Key Lime Beergarita is perfect for this air sign to enjoy amongst friends," says Tejeda. To make a Key Lime Beergarita, combine tequila, beer, fresh key lime juice, and agave syrup in a pitcher, stir well, and serve over ice in salt-rimmed glasses. Top it off with a drizzle of agave for added sweetness, shake, and enjoy!

Cancer: Watermelon Cucumber Margarita

Cancer might be the homebody of the zodiac, but nobody knows how to celebrate summertime like you do. You love soaking up the sun and snacking on delicious foods while doing it. "Cancer is the zodiac sign that kicks off summer, so what better way for this water sign to enjoy summer than with a watermelon margarita," says Tejeda. Add a few slices of cucumber if you want to cool off, or bits of chopped jalapeño for some added punch. This drink is perfect for sipping while enjoying good food and quality time with loved ones at your next summer BBQ.

Since your birthday blooms right around the peak of summer, you deserve a drink with plenty of fresh fruit and botanical flavors. "A grapefruit margarita with crushed basil is a great choice for Leo, especially since grapefruit is a corresponding fruit for this sign and symbolizes self-love—and Leos love that love," Tejeda explains.

Virgo: Classic Agave Margarita

Some like it hot, but you prefer to keep things classic. Nothing gets past your keen eye for details; if something doesn't measure up to your standards, you're not afraid to say so. Virgo tends to be a perfectionist who works around the clock, so this delicious cocktail can be a reminder to make time for rest and relaxation. "This earth sign is known for being classy and practical and likes to stick to a good recipe that gets the job done, which is what makes a classic agave margarita the best drink to match their energy," Tejeda explains.

You like nice things, Libra, and you deserve to live large! Ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, you love to indulge in drinks that look good and taste good. So, you need a margarita that makes an impression. "Since Libra is all about balance and harmony, they need a drink that has a perfect balance of tart and sweet. Strawberry is also the fruit that corresponds to Libra, making it a dreamy pick," Tejeda says. This margarita can be enjoyed frozen or on the rocks. Add a splash of soda water to top off your margarita for an added burst of fizz.

Scorpio: Rosemary Hibiscus Margarita

Let's heat things up a little, Scorpio. You're known for being assertive and outspoken about your preferences—you like what you like, and you're not making any apologies. That's why we think you need a margarita flavor that packs a punch while still having a dash of sweetness. "Scorpios are known for their deep and passionate vibes, which makes the flavors of a hibiscus margarita a great summer drink that aligns with Scorpio energy," Tejeda says. Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary and serve with sugar on the rim of the glass.

That's why there's no better choice for you than a spiced mango margarita. "As the zodiac sign ruled by Saturn, the planet of lessons and responsibility, no sign needs a day off and a good margarita more than Capricorn," says Tejeda. Take the extra time to blend the mangoes from scratch—it's worth the effort—and top with spiced sugar on the rim.

Pisces are very creative and artistic at heart. You're drawn to anything colorful, unusual, funky, or fun—crazy flavor combos are your absolute favorite. You need a margarita flavor that matches your whimsy and charm while still tasting great. "Pisces is all about imagination and wonder, and drinking a colorful ocean-blue mermaid margarita is a great reminder to believe in magic," says Tejeda. A mermaid margarita is easy to make: combine tequila, triple sec, blue curaçao, lime juice, and honey, then blend before serving. For our sober friends, you can swap the blue curaçao for blueberry-infused simple syrup to get that dreamy blue color without the alcohol.
