Although it's recommended to serve in a cocktail glass as per the details, a chilled margarita glass could also be a fun and thematic choice, aligning with the margarita inspiration.

The Kansas City Margarita has an alcohol content of 29.15%, which is relatively high compared to a traditional Margarita that typically has an alcohol content around 20-25% depending on the recipe.
