With a name like Lime Fresh Mexican Grill, you know there’s bound to be some tasty food and an equally as delicious drink menu! Aside from their extensive tequila list and classic margaritas, their specialty cocktails take it up a notch.
For fresh, fruity flavors, try their Nona Paloma made with Camarena Reposado Tequila, hibiscus, agave, fresh grapefruit, and a rim of black lava salt. Or go with the Carter Ranch Water: Corazón Blanco Tequila, agave, lime, Triple-Sec, and Topo Chico sparkling water.
Can’t decide if you’re in the mood for beer, wine or cocktails? Well, you’re in luck! Chroma has a massive selection of all three on its beverage menu.

Not only is Canvas an Insta-worthy location, but the drinks are simply delish! The Nona Sunset cocktail has all the flavors of Florida in a glass: passion fruit, lemon, pineapple, blood orange liqueur, and Flor de Caña Rum.
