When the temperature skyrockets, there is nothing more refreshing than sipping an ice-cold margarita. It is the thirst-quenching summer drink that we all love. So instead of lounging at home, it is time to enjoy the sunshine with your BFF. To make planning easier, here are bars with the best margaritas in Alberta that you need to try. The province is already re-opening restaurants and bars. After weeks of being cooped up indoors, it is time to get outside and sip cocktails with your friends. Sometimes after a long day, all you want is to wind down with a cocktail the size of your head. While we can't promise it won't give you brain freeze, we know all the best spots to go. When it comes to this summertime drink, we prefer them frozen instead of on the rocks. But, picking one flavour can be a challenge as there are so many tasty options. Do we opt for the classic lime, or something more adventurous? While most of these spots are in Calgary, one must stop in Edmonton is Julio's Barrio.They can serve you a flight of three different refreshing flavours. Or, if you are looking for a budget-friendly option, they also sell pitchers perfect for sharing. Here are all the spots you need to visit before fall: Anejo Address: 723 17 Ave. S.W., Calgary Why You Need To Go: As of Friday, June 19, they will be open to the public. While there make sure to order the chilli coconut margarita. It is sweet with a little kick of heat.
