- You will need One cup (8 ounces) Tequila a quarter cup Triple sec half can (6 ounces) Limeade frozen concentrate one fresh lemon Two cups large cubes of ice A half cup of water Ingredients 1. Get a blender. You do not need a a good one because there is not a requirement for crushing ice. 2. Put the ice cubes in the blender. 3. Pour in the tequila and triple sec so that the ice starts diluting the liquor. 4. Using your straining device to keep out lemon seeds, squeeze that fresh lemon into the blender. 5. Pour in the lime aide concentrate. Try not to exceed the prescribed amount -- go light on this stuff (if anything). 6. Pulse or blend only long enough to get the concoction mixed so that it sort of fizzes and changes consistancy slightly. Blending into crushed ice is OK, I just do not prefer it. 7. Toss 4 ice cubes into a 12 ounce, salt rimmed glass, and then pour the margarita! 8. Cut up a lime and hang it off the edge of the glass. This is completely optional. Only garnishment.
- My recipe at the restaurant came from a Grand Marnier ad I saw once. 2 oz. tequila 2 oz. triple sec 2 oz. lime juice Either shake or blend with ice. Pour it into a pint glass with a lime salted rim. If it's shaken, pour it over new ice. Garnish with a lime wheel and sip away!
- On the rocks... 2 oz Gold Tequilla 1 oz Rose's Lime Juice Splash of Sour Ice Shake Pour in salt rimmed glass... Top with a shot of Grand Marnier Enjoy!
- fill glass with ice, add equal parts tequila & triple sec (orange liquor), fill rest of glass with sour mix, a splash of orange juice, shake vigorously, salt rim if you'd like, finish with a fresh squeezed lime Anejo tequila is a must in margaritas, silver tequila will not give you the flavor you want. And use Cointreau for your orange liquor not Gran Marnier, the cognac in the Gran Marnier will throw off your flavors. Secret ingredient is the OJ though, the citrus cuts through the acidity in the sour mix giving you a much smoother drink.
