It’s heating up here in the Alamo City and what better way to cool off then a frozen marg?
That’s why we’re rounding up a list of five SATXtoday approved sips that’ll keep you cool all summer long.
Costa Pacifica , 434 N. Loop 1604 W., Ste. 2101
Join this locally-owned Mexican seafood restaurant for its Happy Hour specials running all day Monday and Tuesday, and Wednesday to Friday from 3-6 p.m. Our recommendation: bring some friends and order the grand one-liter cantaritos or frozen margaritas with any flavor of choice at half the price.
Thirsty Aztec , 200 River Walk St.
On the run? Snag some frozen margaritas to-go and take a stroll at the River Walk. This is definitely one of the most Instagram-worthy drinks on our list. Our recommendation: we’re dreaming of Da Azteca — mango, piña, strawberry, blue raspberry, three jello shots, two rum shooters, and one rum shooter.
La Laguna , 23535 I-10 W. Suite 3001
This Leon Springs restaurant is a mariscos-lover’s paradise — but, that’s not all. The bar also serves up some delicious + creative sips larger than your head (check out La Princessa Smirnoff ). Our recommendation: try a not-so-typical flavor like duranzo (peach), jamaica (hibiscus), or tamarindo.
La Gloria , multiple locations
Flagship concept of Chef Johnny Hernandez, La Gloria has become a staple in San Antonio’s culinary tapestry. This is to say, the food is really really good, and the margaritas… well, they’re so good they created the Margarita Truck . Our recommendation: try the featured Margarita La Gloria with El Jimador Reposado, blue curaçao, Patrón Citrónge, lime juice, and agave nectar.
La Fonda on Main , 2415 North Main Ave.
Visit the oldest Mexican restaurant in SA (since 1932) and enjoy authentic sips + eats at its hacienda-style dining room or patio. Our recommendation: Mezcalero with Rey Campero mezcal, citrónage, fresh lime, and a chamoy chile rim.
