More About This Recipe

  • This Bell Pepper Margarita (adapted from About.com) is the perfect pairing for a Bugle-rimmed cocktail. My childhood memories can be broken down into two categories: Eating Bugles, and not eating them. In case you don’t know, Bugles are the bomb-diggety. So much so, I just said “bomb diggety.” And this probably will never happen again. So, if your childhood is void of any blissful memories with these cone-shaped corn chips, fear not! There’s no day like today to Bugle-fy your life and combine it with a sweet, sour, and spicy Bell Pepper Margarita. Just rim the cocktail with crushed Bugles and enjoy the perfect Bugle and cocktail combination.
