Cesena was a ranch operator by trade, and it is disputed whether she was the daughter of a German ambassador as the story claims. Bartender Don Carlos Orozco reputedly named a new drink after Mexican-German patron Margarita Henkel Cesena, a frequent customer to the cantina. Hussong's Cantina also claims to have been the site of the margarita's creation in Ensenada, Baja California, in 1941.
