Well, at Barrio, you can do precisely that with their Soft Serve Margarita available in lime or the sorbet flavor of the day and blended with their house tequila. If you’re looking for a marg with more of a kick, try their Truese or Dare featuring Tanteo jalapeno-infused blanco tequila, green chartreuse, lime, cucumber, simple syrup, and foam.
