Puesto Pours a Wellness-Minded Margarita With Cymbiotika

09.28.26

At Puesto, good food has always been about how guests feel when they leave. So the restaurant asked a fair question: why shouldn't the margaritas do the same?

Puesto has teamed up with Cymbiotika, the San Diego-based wellness brand known for its science-backed supplements, clean ingredients and liposomal delivery system, to bring that thinking to the bar. The result is a short lineup of margaritas built on premium ingredients, bold flavor and a few wellness-minded additions.

It's a natural pairing. Both are Southern California brands that have made ingredient integrity and transparency part of the pitch, and Cymbiotika's products are now carried by major retailers nationwide.

Two new margaritas anchored by 818 Tequila, a 100% blue Weber agave tequila produced in Jalisco's Los Valles region, join the beverage menu, along with a nonalcoholic option.

Order one with your favorite taco and toast to good food, good drinks and feeling great.

The new functional margaritas with Cymbiotika include:

MAR VERDE
818 blanco tequila, kiwi, cilantro, lime,
Cymbiotika Irish Sea Moss (Lemon Vanilla)
supports: glowing skin + gut balance

PEACHES Y CREMA 
818 blanco tequila, vecinos mezcal, peaches, coconut cream,
Cymbiotika Liposomal Glutathione (Citrus Vanilla)
supports: detox, glow, gut balance

PIÑA SPRITZ non-alcoholic 
pineapple, elderflower, Crodino aperitivo, lemon,
Cymbiotika Liposomal D3+K2+CoQ10 (Tangerine)
supports: immunity + bone strength

Puesto’s new functional beverages with Cymbiotika will be available at all Puesto locations beginning September 21, 2026. For more information, please visit eatpuesto.com.
