Taco Cabana Releases New Dr Pepper Margarita
There's nothing more Texas than a Dr Pepper margarita. The first of its kind (really, an extensive Google search revealed zero recipes for Dr Pepper Margaritas), it is almost impossible to wrap your head around the flavor. One user on Twitter shared that it has the ability to "be amazing or nauseating. There is no in-between."

Wide Open Media Commerce Writer Allison Johnson tried the margarita and was taken aback. "The nastiest margarita I've ever had... and this is coming from someone who used to drink everclear with Gatorade."
"Taco Cabana has always been the go-to place in Texas for great margaritas," said Fiesta Restaurant Group President and CEO, Rich Stockinger in a news release, "We're excited about these new flavors and all for just $2 each.
Buying margaritas for a crowd? (Hopefully a socially-distance crowd). Purchase one of Taco Cabana's famous on-the-rocks margaritas by the gallon for only $34.99. This weekend only guests may purchase 2 gallons of Lime, Strawberry, Mango or Blue Curacao flavors for $60.
While at Taco Cabana make sure to check out their all-day breakfast which includes selections such as bacon & egg tacos, brisket & egg tacos, steak fajita & egg tacos, and bean and cheese tacos.
The drinks will be available for dine-in, drive-thru, or pick-up with a food purchase at all participating locations in San Antonio, Austin, Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, and El Paso for a limited time.
