The symbol of twins is so apt for you Geminis because of the volatility one feels around you. Sometimes, the evil twin can overpower your brain and lead you to overthink.

It’s time for the fun-loving, happy, jolly people. You can’t call it a party unless there are Sagis in it.

But why settle for less if you can get more, right? Typical Aquarius trait to have. Playing around with the type of tequila is a fun way to explore new flavors.
12. Pisces – Margarita
Often connected to magic, dreams, and the subconscious, you tend to see the best in people. Your symbol, two fish swimming in opposite directions, suggests that you may struggle with making decisive choices. Amidst all the chaos, you appreciate taking a step back and enjoying the little things in life. A refreshing tequila-based margarita perfectly represents your personality.
