You wil have all sorts of entries for this one, but I think the original, although not the flashiest, is still the best.
Into a cocktail shaker filled with ice pour:
1 oz. Tequila (Using a top shelf Tequila is important. I suggest a Reposado)
1 oz. Grand Marnier (much better than triple sec or Cointreau)
1 oz. Lime Juice (from an actual lime rater than a bottle)
Shake well with cracked ice. Rub rim of cocktail glass with rind of lime. Dip rim in salt. Strain into cocktail glass.
Enjoy!

Tequila One cup- (8 ounces)
Triple sec -a quarter cup
Limeade frozen concentrate - half can (6 ounces)
Lemon juice -one fresh lemon
Ice -Two cups large cubes
Water -a half cup
Mixing the Ingredients
1. Get a blender. You do not need a a good one because there is not a requirement for crushing ice.
2. Put the ice cubes in the blender.
3. Pour in the tequila and triple sec so that the ice starts diluting the liquor.
4. Using your straining device to keep out lemon seeds, squeeze that fresh lemon into the blender.
5. Pour in the lime aide concentrate. Try not to exceed the prescribed amount -- go light on this stuff (if anything).
6. Pulse or blend only long enough to get the concoction mixed so that it sort of fizzes and changes consistancy slightly. Blending into crushed ice is OK, I just do not prefer it.
7. Toss 4 ice cubes into a 12 ounce, salt rimmed glass, and then pour the margarita!
8. Cut up a lime and hang it off the edge of the glass. This is completely optional. Only garnishment.

This one's for real, NO AMATEURS
Fill a pitcher with ice, add 4 oz tequila (patron if you got it), 2 oz everclear, 2 oz gran marnier, top with fresh lime juice and a hint of simple syrup. Makes two monsters

I usually go with the general recipe already mentioned.
Just to add to that:
I you find the sweet and sour mix to be too tart for your taste, try adding a splash of sprite and/or a splash of OJ.
