Chili’s Is Selling a $5 Margarita in February—and It Comes with a Heart Stir Stick
Whether you plan on celebrating February 14 with your better half or your best friend, the Chili’s Margarita of the Month has serious Valentine’s Day vibes. Here’s the best part—each Grand Romance margarita is only $5!
What Is the Grand Romance Margarita?
It’s a margarita designed to make you fall in love at first sip. This margarita is made with Grand Marnier, Lunazul Blanco Tequila, fresh sour and Monin pomegranate syrup—which gives the margarita its vibrant red color. The drink is topped with a citrus rim, fresh lime wedge and a clever candy heart-shaped stir stick that says, “A Steady Rita-lationship.”

You can keep the stir stick, of course. But don’t forget to check out our Valentine’s Day gift ideas that aren’t a box of chocolates.
How Do I Get the Drink of the Month?
The good news is that Chili’s Grand Romance margarita is available for the entire month of February. It’s true! It doesn’t matter what time of day you order one, it’s still only $5 if it’s February. You can head to your nearest Chili’s and enjoy a drink while you dine in, or add them to your to-go order at participating locations.
Psst: Pair your marg with a secret menu Boss Burger.
Don’t Forget About National Margarita Day!
If Valentine’s Day wasn’t reason enough to cheers with these candy-colored margs, February 22 is actually National Margarita Day. Last year, Chili’s celebrated by serving its famous Presidente Margaritas for $5 all day. They even had special National Margarita Day cups that were available while supplies lasted. We’re not sure what Chili’s has up their sleeve yet, but we know it will be worth celebrating!
