Oh, my gosh, how could you not include the “Bobarita” at Carmel’s Mexican and Southwest Grill on Shroyer? It is the owner’s (Bob Byers) special brew and is smooth as silk….not tart like most margaritas. And it DOES have a kick that you won’t easily forget! The Bobarita should be rated the “Numero Uno” north of the Texas border.
