The use of Patrón and Citrónage would have you believe that this is a premium margarita, but all the nuance of that alcohol is drowned out by the sweetness and artificiality of the high fructose corn syrup infused margarita mix.ĭon’t let the Patrón and Citrónage fool you, those more premium alcohols are ruined by the sweetness of the margarita mix. Incredibly easy to drink but I feel like this option is a bit of a trap for tequila novices. Tropical and sweet, but heavy on the alcohol with a noticeable (but pleasing) bitterness on the backend.īuild: Patrón Silver, Citrónage, Margarita Mixīright and vegetal with smooth vanilla notes, soft orange flavors, and a sweet artificial lime flavor. I like this much better than the Tiki Beach Party Rita.Īpart from the sweet tropical flavors, this drink really packs a punch and feels more deserving of the “margarita” name. Rich vanilla, oak and brandy flavors paired with creamy coconut, some lime zest, and a bright vegetal agave finish with some black pepper spice. Grand Coconut Margarita Chiliīuild: Lunazul Blanco Tequila, Malibu Coconut Rum and Grand Marnier with Coconut, Margarita Mix Again, I can only speak to the classic, which was nothing special. Like the frozen version this is available in classic, mango, strawberry, or wild berry. If you’re going to order this I highly suggest you elevate it by choosing one of Chili’s better tequila brands like Casamigos or Patrón. It’s your standard restaurant margarita, nothing special, gets the job done. Very candy sweet and sugary with a zesty artificial lime flavor and hint of salt on the backend. Good but more of a rum focused tropical drink than something that should be in the margarita family.īuild: Tequila, Triple Sec, Margarita Mix But the tequila is definitely an afterthought here, don’t let that ‘Rita’ added to the name fool you. This wouldn’t be my first choice - or frankly, my second, third, or fourth - but the intense sweetness and tropical vibes of this drink are addicting. You get the slightest hint of tequila’s bright bite on the backend, but it’s muted by the sweetness. Heavy notes of vanilla and orange with a hint of tart lime citrus, and faint echoes of piña colada, without the emphasis on cream. Tiki Beach Party Rita Chiliīuild: Bacardi Silver Rum, Jimador Silver Tequila, Blue Curacao, Coconut and Pineapple Sweet and people pleasing, unless you’re a tequila snob. Pick your poison but I can only speak for the classic. In addition to the classic flavor you can order this mango, strawberry or wild berry. They just want something sweet to drink that’ll give a buzz. This is a drink for people who don’t really care about tequila. I couldn’t get a straight answer about what type of tequila is used here, at one Chili’s I was told it was El Toro, another told me it was El Jimador but at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter. If you’re a fan of frozen margaritas, I’m sorry but it’s Chili’s weakest, both in flavor and in alcohol strength. Very little tequila flavor, but the ice slush is smooth and a treat to drink.

I will say this though - in my experience the seasonal margarita is always worth a try!ġ1. Both drinks are delicious but because there is a high chance you’ll be coming to this ranking at a random time of the year, I decided not to rank these. Currently it’s the September Sunrise (tequila pineapple and grenadine), and before that it was the Sangrita (Sangria with a tequila twist). This way you know exactly what you order when you’re rolling through.Īside from the 11 core margaritas, Chili’s also has a seasonal margarita that they rotate in and out. Over the past few weeks I’ve been on a quest to try every single permanent margarita on the Chili’s menu in an effort to rank them from most inessential to the most delicious. So we’re here to help you choose the right margarita for you. And trust me my friend… you don’t want to die in a Chili’s. I mean you could but you’d probably die a horrible death from alcohol poisoning. If you’re rolling up to Chili’s, you’d better be coming with an insatiable thirst for tequila because even if you’re a hardcore drinker, there is no way you can try the entire margarita menu in one sitting. You could even argue that it’s too many ( could you though? Could you really?). Currently the restaurant has over ten permanent margaritas on the menu (and they’re available both in-restaurant and to-go). Your typical big brand nationwide restaurant chain has about two or three margaritas on the menu.
