Princess Cruises also Marks the Sale of Over 1 Million Signature 24K Margaritas Made with Award-Winning Pantalones Organic Tequila

Princess Cruises raised a salted-rim glass to National Margarita Day in record-breaking style, breaking a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the Most Margaritas Sold in 8 Hours. The celebration aboard Regal Princess sold 3,410 handcrafted 24K Margaritas featuring Pantalones Organic Blanco Tequila, surpassing the previously held record of 2,728.

The record-setting event took place on February 17, while the 3,560-guest Regal Princess was in Cozumel during a 7-day Western Caribbean cruise from Galveston, Texas. The event turned the ship into a floating fiesta as guests came together to celebrate Princess Cruises’ most popular cocktail.

“You could feel the celebration in every bar of Regal Princess as Princess Cruises made history with a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for Most Margaritas Sold in 8 Hours,” said Thomas Bradford, Official Adjudicator from Guinness World Records.

The historic achievement coincided with another major milestone for the cruise line: the sale of 1,038,197 24K Margaritas sold from Jan. 1, 2025, through Jan. 7, 2026. The 24K Margarita is the fleet’s most popular signature cocktail, made exclusively with Pantalones Organic Blanco Tequila.

The million-margarita milestone arrives just over one year after Princess Cruises and Pantalones Organic Tequila launched their fleetwide partnership in October 2024, quickly becoming one of the most successful beverage collaborations in cruise line history.

Adding to the celebration, Pantalones co-founders Camila and Matthew McConaughey sent a congratulatory video message, applauding Princess Cruises, its crew, and guests for making history at sea that was met with loud applause throughout the ship.

The beloved 24K Margarita is handcrafted with award-winning Pantalones Organic Blanco Tequila, Cointreau, Grand Marnier, margarita mix, and served over ice in a salted-rim glass, an indulgent cocktail that has become a must-sip experience across the Princess fleet.

This milestone follows the recent christening of Princess’ newest ship, Star Princess, with Camila and Matthew McConaughey serving as godparents. The couple marked the occasion by blessing the vessel with a bottle of Pantalones Organic Tequila, wishing her good fortune on all future journeys.

“Pantalones serves our guests a spirit of joy, storytelling, and easygoing adventure that mirrors the Princess onboard experience,” said Sami Kohen, Princess Cruises Vice President of Food and Beverage. “Celebrating one million 24K Margaritas and making history with a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title on National Margarita Day, captures the incredible spirit and enthusiasm our guests brought to create this unforgettable moment at sea – and now, they’ll forever be part of this unforgettable chapter in Princess history.”

Pantalones Organic Tequila, available in Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo, is now poured at bars throughout the Princess fleet and is included in Princess Premier and Princess Plus packages.
