Margaritaville is not just a song. It was in 1977, but this is 2018. We've turned lyrics into actions, dreams into reality. You can now waste away at Margaritaville restaurants all over the country or make a Buffett-approved cocktail at home from the just-released Margaritaville cookbook. Don a printed tee and a baseball hat while doing so, and you practically are Jimmy.

But we should have known those ingenious Parrotheads weren't done creating odes to the singer. In the great words of Noah Calhoun: It wasn't over. It still isn't over. So, enter two new booze cruises. They're setting sail from the Margaritaville at Lanier Islands resort in Buford, GA, every weekend this summer at 5p.m. - because, when else?

On Saturdays, you can hop aboard The LandShark for a three-hour sunset sail. An $80 ticket comes with two drinks, but you can buy more on board. And you'll want to: There are eight different margaritas on the menu, made with Margaritaville brand Dark Rum, Gold Tequila, and Classic Margarita Mix. If a marg isn't your style, (1) why are you here?, and (2) you're in luck. The boat serves beer and other spirits. There will also be a full nacho bar, barbecue sliders, and peel-and-eat shrimp.

Family reunion in the works this summer? We’ve got just the place…

Sundays offer something a little more refined. The Margaritaville boat will host three-hour wine cruises. Guests can join for $70 and will be treated to a wine tasting and appetizer pairings. The whole thing will have you wanting to sign up for Margaritaville's St. Somewhere Wine Club - which you'll learn all about on the cruise.

The first cruise takes off this Saturday, on Cinco De Mayo, but reservations are open through the end of October.
