Maurice PATRON ST~RITA

To celebrate National Margarita Day (February 22), Patrón Tequila and St~Germain Elderflower Liqueur have teamed up with celebrity floral artist Maurice Harris to create fresh and joyful takes on the classic Margarita. With every bottle of St~Germain composed of up to 1,000 fresh, handpicked elderflower blossoms and tequila’s most popular cocktail (the margarita actually meaning “daisy” in Spanish) collaborating with Maurice was a natural fit for the brands. 

Maurice has designed floral installations and arrangements for global brands and personalities, including Gucci, Beyonce, Louis Vuitton, and The Row. Most recently he was a judge on “Full Bloom,” a reality competition series on HBO Max and filmed a flower arranging course on MasterClass.
