El Chico del Apartamento 512 Margarita

Inspired by one of Selena’s most memorable songs El Chico del Apartamento 512, a fresh cantaloupe margarita was served at my Raised on Selena which celebrates the late Tejano’s life, legacy and impact on Latinos. The 512 is a loving nod from Selena to Corpus Christi, Texas’s former area code.
