Grandma Jilly’s Lavender Margarita is our floral and refreshing concoction perfect for the ultimate chillin’, and we need YOUR help to officially claim its’ title as SD’s favorite margarita!

Whether you’re sipping our lovely creation on The AC’s colorful Glampisphere patio or searching for chill time amidst one of our epic nights as one of North Park’s favorite dance bars, this mellow fix will certainly get the good times rollin’.
