Drink Your Way Through North Carolina On The Margarita Marathon

We can’t think of a more responsible way to bar hop than on foot and what better reason than to check out North Carolina’s Margarita Marathon? No… not the kind of marathon where you’ll need running shoes – it’s a drinking marathon. The next time you’re headed to Bank of America Stadium for a Panthers game (the stadium is only blocks from the marathon route), or into Charlotte for any reason actually, set aside some time to pair some tasty margaritas with some flavorful food! The Margarita Marathon is a walking route that leads to, you guessed it, margaritas. Check it out:

Let's get this party started at Que Onda Tacos Uptown with their signature margarita. If you skipped a meal getting ready for this marathon, then consider pairing the first margarita of the day with a delicious taco (or three). Or, skip the food and order a flight of cocktails, margarita, included.
