We're so excited that it's National Margarita Day! While we don't recommend drinking margs near our collection, but we definitely recommend unwinding with one at home or out with friends!
What would a margarita be without some lime? This plate comes from The Book of Health (1898) and shows the lime plant in the bottom left corner. Other plants depicted are: stavesacre, golden rod, and bear berry.
Enjoy some margs, friends!
