Whether you prefer your margaritas Rocks or Frozen, our Blood Orange Margarita is ready to cast a spell on your taste buds.

No tricks. Just a bloody good margarita.

Meet the Blood Orange Margarita: A Halloween Treat Worth Sipping

Halloween isn’t just about costumes, candy and spooky decorations. It’s also the perfect excuse to try something new.

At Felipe’s, we love introducing seasonal margarita flavors that give our guests another reason to gather around the table, enjoy great Mexican food and raise a glass together.

Our newest creation brings together three ingredients that make this Halloween margarita stand out:

  • Real Blood Orange Purée: Sweet, vibrant citrus flavor with a slightly tart finish and a beautiful orange-red color.
  • Chamoy: A tangy, savory and slightly spicy Mexican condiment that adds another layer of flavor to the garnish.
  • Black Salt: A dramatic, dark rim that creates the perfect Halloween presentation while complementing the margarita’s bright citrus flavors.

The result? A margarita that’s festive enough for Halloween but delicious enough to enjoy any time of year.

It’s a little sweet. A little tart. A little mysterious.

And it’s only here for a limited time.

Rocks or Frozen? Choose Your Halloween Margarita Adventure

One of the best things about Felipe’s is that we believe your food and drinks should be made your way.

Our Blood Orange Margarita is no exception.

Instead of creating an entirely new cocktail, we’ve made it easy to add the seasonal flavor to two of our most popular margarita styles.

Blood Orange Key Lime Margarita Rocks

If you’re a fan of our classic Key Lime Margarita Rocks, this one’s for you.

Our award-winning Key Lime Margarita is made with hand-squeezed Key limes, creating the bright, refreshing citrus flavor Felipe’s guests have enjoyed for years.

Add real blood orange purée, and you’ve got a seasonal twist that brings a deeper citrus sweetness to the familiar Key lime flavor.

The chamoy and black salt garnish provides a bold finishing touch.

It’s a refreshing choice for anyone who loves a traditional margarita with a little something extra.

Blood Orange Frozen Margarita

Prefer something cold, smooth and refreshing?

Our frozen margaritas are made with fresh-squeezed citrus, including Persian limes and oranges, creating the refreshing flavor that makes Felipe’s frozen margaritas a guest favorite.

Adding blood orange purée introduces another layer of sweet citrus flavor and gives the drink a festive Halloween appearance.

Finished with chamoy and black salt, it’s a fun combination of frozen margarita refreshment and seasonal flavor.

Whether you’re sitting at the bar, enjoying tacos with friends or kicking off your Halloween festivities, a Blood Orange Frozen Margarita is an excellent way to celebrate.

Can’t decide between Rocks and Frozen? Bring a friend and try both!

Why Blood Orange Makes Such a Great Margarita

You may be wondering: What makes blood oranges different from regular oranges?

Blood oranges are a variety of citrus fruit known for their distinctive red-colored flesh and complex flavor.

While traditional oranges are known for their bright sweetness, blood oranges can offer a more layered taste, combining familiar citrus notes with subtle berry-like characteristics.

That makes them especially interesting in cocktails.

Blood orange adds a rich citrus character that complements the tartness of lime, making it a natural match for margaritas.

And, of course, there’s the name.

When Halloween rolls around, it’s hard to imagine a more fitting fruit for a festive cocktail than the blood orange.

Add a black salt rim, and suddenly your margarita looks ready for a Halloween party.

At Felipe’s, we’re using real blood orange purée, not simply relying on artificial flavoring to create the experience.

Because when it comes to margaritas, we believe the ingredients matter.

The Chamoy and Black Salt Rim: A Spooky Finishing Touch

A great margarita should taste delicious, but there’s nothing wrong with making it look good, too.

Our Blood Orange Margarita gets its Halloween personality from a combination of chamoy and black salt.

Chamoy is a popular Mexican condiment that brings together tangy, savory, sweet and spicy flavors. It’s commonly enjoyed with fruit, snacks and beverages.

Paired with blood orange, chamoy creates a delicious contrast between the fruit’s citrus sweetness and the condiment’s tangy kick.

Then comes the black salt.

The dark, textured rim creates a striking contrast against the margarita’s orange-red color, giving the cocktail its signature Halloween appearance.

It’s a simple touch that makes this seasonal margarita instantly recognizable.

And yes, it’s absolutely worthy of a Halloween photo.

So before taking that first sip, snap a picture and share your spooky creation with friends.

Just don’t spend too long taking pictures. Your margarita is waiting!

Award-Winning Margaritas, Now With a Halloween Twist

There’s a reason margaritas are such a big part of the Felipe’s experience.

For nearly 20 years, our New Orleans-based, family-owned restaurant group has focused on serving scratch-made Mexican cuisine, refreshing margaritas and creating memorable experiences for our guests.

We believe a great margarita starts with great ingredients.

That’s why our margaritas feature hand-squeezed citrus, not just the flavor of lime from a premade sour mix.

Our Key Lime Margarita Rocks highlights the bright flavor of Key limes, while our frozen margaritas combine Persian limes and oranges for a refreshing citrus experience.

And New Orleans has taken notice.

In the 2026 Gambit Best of New Orleans awards, Felipe’s was voted:

  • #1 Best Margarita
  • #1 Best Happy Hour
  • #1 Best Mexican Restaurant

Those awards mean a lot to our team because they come from the guests and neighbors who have supported Felipe’s throughout the years.

Our Blood Orange Margarita builds on that award-winning foundation with a fun, seasonal twist.

Same commitment to quality. Same refreshing margaritas.

Just a little more Halloween spirit.

Tacos, Margaritas and Halloween: A Perfect Combination

A seasonal margarita paired with your favorite Felipe’s food.

Whether you’re planning a casual lunch, meeting friends for Happy Hour or enjoying dinner before a Halloween celebration, we’ve got plenty of delicious ways to make the occasion memorable.

And remember, guac is not extra at Felipe’s!

Blood Orange Margarita + Quesadilla
