Figs + Margaritas = Win

Los Altos has a farmer’s market every Thursday through the end of the summer, so I popped by it today.  Besides netting some tasty looking cilantro pesto and some home-made raviolis, I got some blueberries, raspberries, and figs.  This is the first time I’ve seen figs for sale in CA, so I was pretty pumped.  After spending $400 at Costco after the farmer’s market, I was in need of a margarita.

The thing I love about margaritas is that you can put just about anything in one.  Figs are kind of bitter, but margarita mix is incredibly sweet.  I tossed in some blueberries for good measure, and the whole thing is freakin’ awesome.  There are a ton of fig seeds suspended in the mix, which makes the drink look cool besides tasting great.
