Killer Margarita Recipe


Margarita Recipe

One of my favorite drinks to enjoy is a Margarita. But a lot of people make margaritas that are either too sweet or too sour. This can leave you with a little heart-burn type feeling that I hate. And it’s all because of that store-bough mix.

To make a perfect margarita, it’s not too hard… and it’s taken me a lot of bad batches to come up with the perfect margarita recipe that you could drink all night.

Margaritas go perfect with Brisket Tacos

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 2 oz of Tequila
  • 1 oz of Grand Mariner
  • 1 oz of Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1 oz Rose’s lime juice
  • Splash of Corona Beer (any Mexican beer can be used)
  • Coarse Salt for the glasses
  • Ice

This recipe is one that I use in ancillary Margarita competitions – and won a few times with.

Start with a shaker filled with ice and measure out 2 oz of Tequila.  I use Don Julio Reposado or Patron Reposado.. and I reserve the silver for taking shots.

Pour the tequila over the ice and then measure 1 oz of Grand Mariner and pour into the shaker.

Next squeeze a few of limes and collect the juice. Make sure you get the seeds out if you didn’t while squeezing.  Add 1 oz of Fresh Lime Juice and 1 oz of Rose’s Lime Juice to the shaker.

Now your asking me what’s the beer for? Well you add a splash of Corona, put the top on the shaker, and give it a good shaking.  Pour the mixture into a salt rimmed Margarita glass and enjoy.  Now you’ve got a great tasting margarita without that cheap sweet and sour taste.
