"1 to 1 to 1"
1 part fresh squeezed lime juice 1 part Cointreau 1 part white Tequila
Shake or stir & serve over ice
Don't waste your money on expensive tequila for margaritas. Expensive tequilas are for sipping.

I have found through decades of research that cheap tequila makes the best margaritas.

For frozen we make ours with those small Mexican limes, Triple Sec, cheap tequila and ice in the blender.when in the glass we then add a Grand Marnier "swirl" on top.
For on the rocks we skip blender part
It's smooth and STRONG!

I discovered Finest Call margarita mix a few years ago. It's really a good way to start. A splash of Triple Sec makes a good margarita better..

Use Michelob for all I care...don't knock it until you try it. Why 7-Up..it's not as sweet. It's smooth and strong as requested.

No such thing as the ultimate margarita. Too many different tastes.
The best I've had come from Marias in Santa Fe. They have been messing with "cactus whiskey" since before it became popular. They sell a book called The Great Margarita Book. It's worth buying.
Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.

Most margaritas give me indigestion that would knock a horse over. I like them, but tend to stay away. If I do get one in public, it's top shelf and on the rocks, preferably with as little other stuff in it as possible.

empty 1 small can of limeaid into blender add 2/3 to 1 full limeaid can of tequila. (Clear tequila like Sauza or Corralejo will give it less bite.) add 1/3 limeaid can of Triple Sec add 1 tablespoon of whipping cream (This takes the bite out of it and makes it extra smooth) fill remainder of blender with crushed ice and blend Makes a great tasting smooth frozen marguerita

Here is one for the ladies. MY wife loves it.
1 can of limeade - empty into blender 1 limeade can of tequila 1/2 can triple sec 1 jar of Mango slices ice Blend. If you constantly stir the contents while the blender is running it will get ultra smooth and creamy and cold.

I tended bar for 8 years so take this with a grain of salt. 3 parts Sauza Hornitos 1 part el Presidente brandy 1 part Grand Marnier 1 part Rose's lime juice 4 parts fresh lime juice 1 part simple syrup or to taste depending on sweetness of limes.
Shake with ice and strain into a salt rimmed martini glass and ad a splash of olive juice or serve over ice.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.
