The Best Margaritas in New Orleans | Eater New Orleans

"This Lakeview Mexican joint offers a margarita menu that changes with the seasons, featuring the likes of watermelon and mint; blood orange and mango; and coconut, mango, and habanero. Sip out on the lively patio, and feel good that these thirst quenchers are made with freshly squeezed lime juice and cane sugar." - Beth D’Addono
