San Antonio restaurants embrace the latest trend with soft-serve margaritas, mixing cocktail with dessert delight.

SAN ANTONIO — You have probably seen them on Instagram. Now, local restaurants are bringing a national drink trend to San Antonio. 

They are called soft-serve margaritas and many of them are dairy-based. It’s basically a margarita meets soft-serve ice cream, swirled in a margarita glass. Those among the first to try them report they are so thick, they have to be eaten with a spoon. 

So far, San Antonio has two locations now serving soft-serve margaritas. The Rodeo Bar And Grill at 7247 Bandera Road in Leon Valley has strawberry and mango varieties. They are going for $14.99 a piece.

Lion and Rose Pub at 23330 W I-10 in the Dominion is also serving a lime variety. They are going for $7.99 each. 

A quick Google search also shows just a few places in Houston and Dallas that are also serving them. The trend is still getting off the ground, but it will not be long before they are everywhere.Â
