Margarita sore/ swel: May be an allergy. An allergist can test . Also get the ingredients to determine which component. Any issues with tequila/agave before or cointreau or oranges/beets? Always have benedryl 2-3 pils on you and take when developing a reaction to anything . Avoid margueritas ( tequila/ cointreau) for now f/u w/ allergist.
