Sweet and spicy ‘rita kicks Halloween up at 50 Ocean
The mango chili margarita (pictured above) will be a spooky surprise at 50 Ocean for Halloween, with an interesting ingredient combination.

The experience is topped off with the sweet, yet spicy surprise of the pepper garnish.” The colorful cocktail is made with Herradura Reposado tequila, Ancho Reyes chili liqueur, Ripe margarita mix and Mango Real.
