For whatever reason, I have had a few requests for my Margarita recipe. What’s funny is that I don’t make my Margaritas for anyone but myself and my immediate family and my late mother-in-law June Sievers.
My recipe isn’t for the Margaritas-by-the-gallon set… but for those special occasions when only the best will do or to impress someone… this’ll work. I don’t measure when I make my Margaritas and this never has gone wrong… so here in it’s simplest form is what I put in it:
1 1/2 – 2 oz. Don Julio ‘Anejo’ Taquila
1/2 oz. Grand Marnier ( a triple sec)
1/2 oz. or more lime juice fresh or otherwise ( vary according to your taste for tartness)
1/2 oz. or more of liquid sweetener ( Agave syrup or Margarita Mix of your choice if you must)
(HINT) mix the lime juice and your choice to sweeten separately and taste until you get it right for you! I like it balanced. This Margarita might be slightly sweeter than you are used to… but definitely more flavorful!
refrigerate all ingredients
Pour over finely crushed ice!
delicioso!
