Now this is the kind of news I’m always happy to share!

Applebee’s is hooking it up with $1 margaritas throughout the month of October. You read that right, for a mere buck, you can enjoy a margarita on the rocks (or as they like to call it, the “Dollarita”) any time from open to close.

The “Dollarita” special is a part of the month-long national celebration of Applebee’s Neighborhood Appreciation Month. Patrick Kirk, vice president of beverage innovation at Applebee’s had this to say in a statement:

We focus on our food a lot, but 'bar' is in our name, and it is an integral part of what makes Applebee's a great neighborhood destination. Our $1 margaritas in October give us a chance to show our guests a little love, giving them a totally unbeatable offer as a gesture of our sincere appreciation for their patronage.

Drink up, but of course, drink responsibly.

Our local Applebee’s is located at 2911 Kemp Boulevard.
