You know the saying…In Arizona We Don’t Salt Sidewalks…We Salt Margarita’s! So, having a good margarita is critical to Phoenician’s. Here’s the hard part….so many good Margarita’s in town, so it’s hard to chose our favorite. So, here are a few of our favorites!
Best Slushy Margarita goes to Z Tejas and their Chambord Margarita. What can I say…You had me at Chambord Float! Not only do they make a fabulous margarita, but you can buy their “secret” ingredients and recipe and make them at home. Making them at home is great because then you won’t have to drive anywhere. If you do indulge in these, you’ll want to get an Uber home for sure! Their secret ingredients can be purchased in the bar!
So, Z Tejas also wins for Best Recipe, since they sell some ingredients and share their recipe!
Best Flavored Margarita is a tie! If you’re in North Phoenix, the winner is the Hot Mango at Modern Margarita, located in High Street in Desert Ridge! Not only will you love the Margarita, but be sure to get their flight of salsa and sit out on their patio…perfection! The carne asada street tacos, guacamole and queso are fabulous too! This restaurant is a favorite for many reasons – margaritas, patio dining and great menu!
The tie goes to the Blood Orange Margarita at Joyride Tacos in Central Phoenix on Central. Be sure to also get their guacomole with fresh corn on top! Their street tacos are also fabulous, with the Crispy Fish being our favorite!
Best Unique Margarita goes to the Unicorn Margarita at Jalepeno Inferno, in North Scottsdale. You can order this Margarita on the rocks, or frozen. I prefer the frozen. This Margarita has a great effervescent quality. It’s bubbly, yummy and refreshing. It also packs a punch, so have a designated driver or Uber for sure!
