My husband was a bartender for a trendy restaurant when we met. Here's one of his home versions! Garnish with a lime wedge or an orange wedge.

I really wondered about this recipe when I first saw it but I tried it for Memorial Day weekend and it was excellent. It was by far better than store-bought Margarita mixes I had been using. We can't wait to make more! This is a very delicious margarita! Read More

Absolutely Fantastic! I've had o share this one with eveyone that tastes it. Be sure to rub the rims with a cut lime and dip the glass in coarse salt. Also I enjoy the taste of tequila so used a little more and also triple sec. Read More

I've been travelling in Mexico for the past 3 months and this is by far my favorite Margarita. Be careful though this is so tasty you just want to drink more and more... Read More

Thank you! I've been trying forever to make perfect margs but mine always came out way to limey and bitter. Read More

I made this over the summer for a barbq and everyone really liked it for a change from the normal margarita. The only thing I would do differently would be to increase the Triple Sec and tequila. Definitely a hit though! Read More

Juice and limeaid are way better than the syrupy taste of sweet and sour mix! Read More
