The goblet-sized frozen margaritas here are just $5 from noon to 7 p.m. daily, but for Monday and Tuesday madness, they stay $5 all night long. If money's not an issue--or if you're really thirsty--go for La Mama ($15), 27 ounces of sweet frozen tequila goodness.

Review & More Info
Best known as the chain of inexpensive Mexican restaurants open late (until 5 a.m. on Thursdays - Saturdays) for when you have the munchies after a night of imbibing, the frozen margaritas here are cheap any time ($5 for lime, $6 for fruit flavors). Thanks to a double happy hour (11 a.m. - 6 p.m. and 1 - 4 a.m.), they drop to the even more budget-friendly price of $2.50 - $3. Try flavors such as cactus-pear, strawberry and mango while you scarf tacos and enchiladas.

On Thursdays, this Upper East Side bar with a arcade games and a pool table offers $6 margaritas (along with Cosmos and Appletinis) all night long. Better yet, check in on Facebook or Yelp and the bar will give you a free drink.
