The Margarita drink is known worldwide, and probably because Jimmy Buffet made it the drink to be.
Here are a few variations of this popular drink
- 1 1/2 oz Tequila
- 1/2 oz Triple sec
- 1 oz Lime juice
- Salt
Mixing instructions:
Rub rim of cocktail glass with lime juice, dip rim in salt. Shake all ingredients with ice, strain into the salt-rimmed glass, and serve.
Frozen Margarita
- 2 tsp coarse Salt
- 1 Lime wedge
- 3 oz white Tequila
- 1 oz Triple sec

- 1 cup crushed Ice
Mixing instructions:
Place salt in a saucer. Rub rim of a cocktail glass with lime wedge and dip glass into salt to coat rim thoroughly, reserve lime. Pour tequila, triple sec, lime juice, and crushed ice into a blender. Blend well at high speed. Pour into a cocktail glass.

[…] We can tell you what our recipe for the best margarita is, but then we will have to kill you. Over the last year or so, we have posted many drink recipes, but none so popular as the margarita recipes. Now, what we neglected to mention or include, is the frozen margarita. Although the drink recipes stay the same, the difference of course is the crushed ice. […]

[…] I know, we usually share drink recipes, but today we wanted to share an awesome Alaskan king crab legs recipe and wine pairing. We were able to take some time, finally, to spend with some family friends and enjoy a great time with food and drinks. Hosting the party, of course I was the tender. Margaritas, Mojitos, and Lemon Drop shots everywhere. […]

The last recipe, “Best Margarita” is the same recipe Longhorn’s Steakhouse uses for their “Perfect Margarita”. It is AWESOME! I think the only difference is they use Lemate’s S&S mix. I created my own low-cal version, not that it makes any difference once all the other hi-cal stuff goes in but…..oh well….after a couple of these drinks, I don’t really care anyway!
