The margarita is arguably the most famous cocktail in the world. But have you ever stopped to wonder who was the first to make it?

The Unsinkable Margarita Sames

All families tell stories about themselves. Those stories are passed down, and like an intergenerational game of telephone, the details sometimes change from fact to fiction.  But have you ever wondered how much of the lore is actually true?  
Family Lore is a weekly narrative podcast that celebrates and investigates ancestral mystique.  Each episode begins with a guest sharing a fascinating family legend, followed by a historical deep-dive to uncover the truth and meaning behind the tale.
Whether it’s a grandfather who flew before the Wright Brothers, a great-aunt who invented the margarita, or a great-uncle who killed a Texas ranching scion, each story offers an intimate glimpse into the familial fables that captivate us. 
Family Lore is an Audacy original podcast.
For more compelling stories of American history, listen to Cement City and Hope, Through History (with Jon Meacham and The HISTORY® Channel), available in this feed.
