National Tequila Day lands on July 24. Major chains like Chili's, Applebee's, Twin Peaks, and On The Border are dropping limited-time deals to celebrate the occasion.
Whether you take your tequila straight or blended into a frozen margarita, today is officially your excuse to indulge (responsibly, of course). These national holidays can sometimes feel like internet fluff, but restaurant chains across the country are using the date to drop legitimately solid discounts. That matters to us.
