That's what I thot, but then I haven't been to pubs for a long time...so thot things might have changed. Laughing

Maybe the lemon is a garnish?

the Bear SG

could be.. or just to give an acidity and citrus to the drink?

newcomer SG

It's lemonade after all. I know some ppl suck on it after downing the drink, but why?

Re: margaritas
You mean tequila shots issit Laughing

The lime (juice) is in the margarita already... Very Happy

kalangkabo SG

what's the purpose of the salt?

do u lick (this sounds obscene) the salt before, during or after you drink the margarita?

choco B SG

Uhh... the coc ktail glass is rimmed with salt
No licking involved hehe

kalangkabo SG

so u'r supposed to drink the margarita without touching the salt?

choco B SG

No.. the salt is on the mouth of the glass, around the whole rim ... so when you drink the margarita, you taste the salt too...
Is a great coc ktail you should try it Very Happy
