Margarita recipe?

My best results occur when I mix this in a standard blender:

1-1/2 cups good tequila! Life is too short to drink cheap tequila! Jose Cuervo Gold is the minimum standard. My personal favorite is Jose Cuervo 1800. And, face it, the margarita will be incrementally better if you jump up to a higher-end brand (besides the better the tequila, the less severe the hangover!). Experimenting with high-end tequilas will add subtle flavors and allow you to create your own signature margarita. My latest favorite is a brand called Cazadores recommended to me by Fernando Avelar whose family has a legacy of growing and harvesting the blue agave tequila in Mexico

1/2 cup Grand Marnier This is as good as is gets. I do not float this on top but rather mix it in with the blender.

1/3 bottle of beer Yes, you did read that right, a bottle of beer. The best results are with a standard bland American icon beer like Budweiser, Coors or Miller. Avoid micro-brews with lots of character as this will leave an aftertaste to your margarita. Beer is one of the few food groups that are basic (non-acidic) and so the addition of beer to this margarita will make a mellow tasting, smooth drinking formula. It also adds the barest hint of carbonation during mixing. This is one of the 'secret' ingredients and I have never had anyone guess that there was beer in their margarita.

1 can frozen lemonade I've experimented with lime-aid, and all sorts of lemonades. You will have to do the same. I avoid the ones with the pulp. Sometimes you will have to add sugar if you've selected a sour brand.

A big long healthy squirt of Real Lemon This is real lemon juice concentrate and adds the wonderful lemon tanginess a great margarita needs.

A big long healthy squirt of Real Lime This is real lime juice concentrate and also adds the lime tartness for a subtle enhancement.

Water or Ice to fill up the blender My preference is to add half ice and half water to fill up the blender to the top. The best margaritas are quite concentrated but then poured over a heaping full glass of ice that starts to dilute the power of the cocktail as it melts. Now, lately we've been serving these straight up of "perfect" in a margarita glass or (my personal favorite) a martini glass. Shake it up on the rocks and pour it in straight up. Somehow this promotes more of a sipping approach (very fast sipping often, but still technically still sipping)

sugar to taste As you are completing the mix portion in the blender, you may choose to add sugar to taste. By doing it in a blender you don't have to worry about a granular texture in the drink.

I just looked this up the other day, a TRUE margarita is not made with that mix crap, it has only 3 ingredients. Tequilla, triple sec and lime juice. In about a 3-2-1 ratio of the order I listed them. Try it, mix it in a shaker with ice, and it works great! And it comes out a lot stronger than those mixy type ones.

1 1/4 Cuervo gold, or Sauza

3/4 Grand Marnier sour mix and some sprite,

shake with ice then pour into a salted rim glass with ice and a lime wheel top with a 1/4 brandy float

ant Tequila better that Cuervo should be drank as a shot (with or without training wheels) otherwise it's a waste of good tequila

The perfect margarita is made with 1800 gold tequila, lime juice, grand mariner,and Cointreau.

Tequila, lime juice and triple-sec....served in an iced glass with a salt rim.....not just nice but the only Margarita recipe

SUPER MARGARITA

4 oz. Cointreau

4 oz. Tequila

4 oz. freshly squeezed key lime juice

ice, as desired.

Combine ingredients and shake with ice or pour over ice, or pulse in blender.

Dip serving glass in water then dip edge of glass in salt.

Makes 4 servings or serves one, four times.

I prefer beer, but if I'm ever on a tropical island, I'll demand that the bartender use the RJR recipe.

Lots and lots of tequila! :)
