Overview

Combining tequila, orange liqueur and lime juice, a classic margarita isn't all that complicated. But, this beloved cocktail can also be rather versatile. If you've grabbed a meal and a drink at El Camino Cantina, you've probably tasted one or several non-traditional varieties. And if you head by the lively Tex-Mex chain's South Bank, Bowen Hills, ChermsideRobina or Sunshine Plaza venues between Tuesday, March 2–Sunday, May 30, you'll be able to sip a few beloved types.

After running a Hottest 100 Rita poll — and receiving more than 3000 votes — El Camino has announced exactly which varieties Aussies love. Prepare to drink your way through mango, watermelon, passionfruit and grape Nerds flavours over the next three months.

All four are available cadillac-style, which means they come with a float of Grand Marnier. You'll pay $20 for a 15-ounce drink and $24. Prefer El Camino's signature strawberry margarita? It also remains on the menu.

At South Bank only, an extra four flavours are on offer as well. So, we hope you like lychee and fruit tingle ritas, and sour apple and calypso crush versions, too.
