How to choose
If you like sweet and juicy
Go strawberry, watermelon, peach or mango. They taste like summer and pair well with salty chips and salsa.
If you like tart
Prickly pear and passion fruit have a bright, slightly tangy edge that stands up to rich food like carne asada and cheese-heavy plates.
If you like berries
Blueberry, blackberry and raspberry give a deeper, jammy flavor. Try two together with the $1.50 extra flavor.
If you want dessert
Piña colada and pineapple are the most tropical of the list, and a good fit after dinner.
Margarita or daiquiri?
Both come in fruit flavors. Margaritas have the tequila-and-lime backbone; the daiquiri is $9 and tends to feel softer and more like a fruit slush. If you're unsure, ask your server which they'd pour for your fruit.
