Bring The Margaritaville Vibe Home With This Festive Drink Recipe
Calling all Parrotheads: In honor of Jimmy Buffett's new holiday album, 'Tis the SeaSon, select Margaritaville restaurants and hotels around the U.S. are serving up the ultimate merrymaking cocktail with the same name.
Here's how to make the coconutty concoction at home.

After one sip, you'll feel the changes in attitudes (even without the changes in latitudes). A festive cocktail deserves a festive soundtrack, so pick up the second-ever holiday album at the Margaritaville store to sing along to a Parrothead version of "12 Days of Christmas" (ten tiki torches, nine pairs of flip flops) and our personal favorite, "Mele Kalikimaka." 'Tis the season after all.
