Mixing Margaritas for a Mission: Texas Living Company Supports Candlelighters’ Margarita Taste-Off
At Texas Living Company, we believe giving back to the community should be as joyful as it is impactful, and few events capture that spirit quite like the annual Candlelighters Margarita Taste-Off event! Every spring, this lively Houston event brings together local restaurants, community leaders, and supporters for an evening filled with delicious margaritas, small bites, and big hearts. Every glass raised goes toward funding programs that support children with cancer and their families throughout the Houston area.
What makes this charity event so special is its unique mix of fun and philanthropy. The Margarita Taste-Off shines a spotlight not only on Candlelighters Houston (a nonprofit dedicated to supporting families battling childhood cancer) but also on the incredible local restaurants that participate. Guests can enjoy signature and exclusive margaritas, flavorful small-bites, silent auctions, and community networking—all while helping raise critical funds for children in need! The event’s success spans generations, drawing supporters of all ages who share one goal: making life a little brighter for Houston families navigating childhood cancer.
For our team at Texas Living Company, supporting this cause is personal. We’re deeply inspired by the strength of the children and families Candlelighters serves, and the organization’s mission to bring hope where it’s needed most. Sponsoring this event allows us to celebrate Houston’s vibrant restaurant scene while standing behind a nonprofit that truly changes lives. It’s one of our favorite reminders that when our community comes together with passion, purpose—and maybe a few salt-rimmed glasses—we can make an incredible impact. And as proud sponsors, we look forward to it all year long. After all, who doesn’t love to sip on unique and creative margarita recipes while also helping beat children’s cancer?
