Top 5 Picks for the Best Margaritas in Dallas, TX

We’re each picking our top 5 best margaritas in Dallas so far! We dive into the history of the frozen margarita machine and also sign up for the Margarita Mile game, the self-guided tour headed up by Visit Dallas, to expand our knowledge and palates. Salt, sugar, and Tajin rims come into question, but we’ll probably drink it anyways (as long as there’s a straw in the goblets at Katy Trail Ice House). Cheers! https://www.visitdallas.com/food-drink/margarita-mile/ https://www.instagram.com/margaritamile/
