National Margarita Day is prompting chains across the U. S. to offer discounted margaritas and limited-time promotions on Sunday, Feb. 22, giving customers a chance to enjoy the tequila-based cocktail at lower prices. From frozen classics to spicy twists, the push by popular restaurant brands has created a surge in budget-friendly options for the holiday.
National Margarita Day: chains and standout promotions
Coverage of the celebration highlights that five restaurants are offering specials this year. The emphasis is on big-name chains rolling out short-term deals at participating locations, with prices and featured recipes designed to drive weekend traffic and extend the celebration for diners.
Chili’s brings multiple limited-time specials
Chili’s is leading the charge with several deals at participating locations. One headline offer is a $5 Tequila Classic available at select restaurants listed on the chain’s website. Chili’s is also showcasing a $6 Margarita of the Month called the StrawEddy, created with Lunazul Blanco Tequila, Deep Eddy Lemon Vodka and strawberry puree. That drink is part of a new Margarita of the Month Club that customers can sign up for to track and access the chain’s rotating monthly margarita offerings. In addition, Chili’s is pouring a $7 Patrón Frozen Margarita made with Patrón Silver Tequila, triple sec and lime juice.
Weekend-long offers and extended promotions
TGI Fridays is offering a $5 Super Fresh Margarita made with Don Julio Blanco and freshly squeezed lime juice; the chain says the offer is available throughout the weekend and that the promotion was posted on the restaurant’s social media page. Kona Grill is extending its special beyond Sunday — the chain is running its promotion through Feb. 25 and is offering its signature Kona Margarita for $6, available all day at the bar during the promotion.
Duffy’s Sports Grill’s low-price standout
Duffy’s Sports Grill is running one of the lowest-priced deals of the day with $2. 22 el Jimador Margaritas available all Sunday at participating locations for dine-in guests. That bargain positions Duffy’s as a budget option for celebrants looking to mark the day without spending much per drink.
Scenes from the celebration and what it means for diners
The National Margarita Day buzz isn’t limited to the mainland U. S. A waiter at a bustling Mexican restaurant in Cancun impressed diners by dancing past tables while balancing four frozen margaritas on his head, underscoring the festive mood surrounding the day. For consumers, the combination of novelty cocktails, rotating monthly features and temporary price cuts creates more reasons to visit restaurants in person and try new margarita variations.
What to expect and next steps for patrons
Those planning to participate should note that deals vary by participating location and that some promotions extend beyond Sunday. For example, Kona Grill’s promotion runs through Feb. 25, while TGI Fridays’ $5 margarita is available across the weekend. Patrons should expect a mix of frozen offerings and crafted twists on the classic margarita, but specific availability and participation are unclear in the provided context. The current coverage highlights major chains and a handful of notable deals, and lists five restaurants offering specials this year.
Recent updates indicate these discounted margarita offers are focused on Sunday, Feb. 22 and select extended dates; details may evolve as participating locations finalize in-store availability and hours.
