Frozen Musts
Frozen Three-Tier Margarita – Doce Mesas

Bold, bright, and best enjoyed with chips and guac under the Knox Street sun.
Frozen Margarita – Anchor Sushi Bar
You can’t go wrong with a classic done right. This marg from Anchor Sushi Bar packs a punch with strong pours of tequila and a Grand Marnier floater for that extra layer of citrusy depth. Refreshingly simple, bold, and just the way summer drinks should be.
