Soft serve margaritas are blowing up on TikTok, and now D.C. can finally get a taste IRL.
Why it matters: Aperol spritzes, so last three years — we're ready for this new "drink of summer."
Driving the news:Taqueria Xochi is serving tequila-spiked soft serve margs at its Navy Yard and Arlington spots in classic lime and strawberry-morita flavors.
The dairy-free treats are like margaritas meet sorbet — light, airy and (optional) drizzled with chamoy, the sweet-savory Mexican fruit sauce.
They're $16 a pop, with rotating flavors like mango-chile and watermelon-Tajín on deck.
Zoom in: Soft serve margs are smoother and creamier than your standard frozen marg, often thanks to coconut or dairy additions and the airy soft-serve spin — less icy slush, more boozy cloud.
Yes, but: Don't call 'em spiked ice cream. Though we'd happily chase one with Max's Best ice cream martinis on a hot day.
