Lee is often cited as the inspiration for the [[Margarita]] cocktail. In 1948, after a trip to Mexico, she and her husband ventured into the [[Balinese Room]] in [[Galveston, Texas]]. She requested a drink similar to one she had had in Mexico, and the head bartender, Santos Cruz, created the Margarita, and named it after the Spanish version of Peggy's name.<ref name="KPRC-TV">{{cite news |last1=Cochran |first1=Amanda |title=Galveston family makes claim to margarita fame |url=https://www.click2houston.com/news/2017/02/22/galveston-family-makes-claim-to-margarita-fame/ |access-date=January 1, 2021 |work=KPRC-TV |date=February 20, 2017}}</ref>
