The Day To Go Bananas


Today is National Banana Day (#NationalBananaDay) — a yearly event that is aimed at celebrating our extensive banana pop-culture.

Although the banana has been tagged by some people as having a dark history (e.g., Banana Republic), we are thankful to be the recipient of this amazing food, and we are particularly grateful for the banana liqueurs that have helped us create margaritas and pumped up our parties!

Bananas are a nutrient powerhouse with natural sugars, low fat, fiber, and low calories. They are easy to digest and one of the most versatile foods available, so its no surprise that banana margaritas are amazing.

To create your drink, we suggest you first find your favorite banana liqueur (or flavor). While we prefer DeKuyper Creme de Banana Liqueur for it’s powerful banana taste and price, there are several other options that you can use as a substitute:

  • Tempus Fugit Creme de Banane
  • Giffard Banane Du Bresil Liqueur 
  • Bols Creme de Banana
  • Hiram Walker Creme De Banana
  • Marie Brizard Banane Liqueur 
  • DaVinci Gourmet Sugar Free Banana Syrup (an alcohol-free option)

Thanks to the versatility of the flavor, bananas go well with many different liqueurs, fruits, and tequila, so we encourage experimentation. To get you started, here are five creative and diverse options:

As always, if you have an amazing margarita that you’d like to share with the world, let us know here (privately) or below in the comments (publicly).
