we're having a party on saturday and i would like to know how to make margaritas.anybody knows the recipe??

Answer 1

Well i think you got the perfect combination from our friend DennisW.

but i think your not a bartender and of course to do those margaritas you will be in trouble. So here is the thing:
5 oz = Bubble - 1 - 2 - 3 ( i will explain, it's how the bartenders count, it's like a phrase help you to have the right dozes; you should say normaly, not fast just, Bubble - 1 - 2 - 3 )
so 3 oz = Bubble - 1 - 2 .
2 oz = Bubble - 1 - 1/2

P.S: why Bubble?? because when you reverse the bottle to poor, the first thing that goes down is bubbles of air, so it's not completly liquid. :°)))))

now for your margaritas, you can do them in you blender, Frozen Margaritas:))) cool no. you put some ice in the bottom of the blender before pooring the drink.

for the margaritas you need a lot of lemon not lime, so here a thing to help you. you take an empty bottle of 1ltr. and you fill it with sqeezed fresh lemon and the other half with water. yep water and you shake it well . why water because if it's pure lemon it want tast good and it will be full of acid.

you can do also Strawberry Margaritas ( frozen or not ) ,you buy two packs of fresh strawberry and you take the green top before you put them in the blender then you add sugar ( untill the taste becomes sweet) and then you take an empty bottle of 1ltr and you do the same thing as the lemon = add water and shake it.
but the difference is that for the strawberry margaritas you put sugar around the glass.

to put the rime around the glasses :
* sugar : you use a sugar can syrup in a plat and then you drop the glass in it. the sugar should be also in an other plat and you drop it in after the syrup.
* salt : use a lemon slice, you pass it around the glass top, then you drop it in the salt ( already in a plate)

finally the recipe:
5 oz of tequila white ( camino real, jose cuervo, Suaza )
2 oz of Lemon ( the one prepared in the bottol)
2 oz of Triple sec ( you can buy it from any alchool store)
Ice

shake ( max 3 times not more) or blend it it's up to you .
P.S: for those who need to get drunk faster , add 1.5 oz of gold tequila


Hava fun and nice party.

Answer 2

Ok, this is one I know about. I was a bartender for a couple years. My Margaritas sold out every night we put them on special. Couldn't keep enough tequila..lol. Now these measurements are just a "base". More or alot more tequila is ok..lol

1 1/2 ounces tequila
1/2 ounce triple sec.

put that in a shaker or glass full of ice..

Your margarita mix is what makes or breaks the drink... You can get the bottles of mix at a local grocery store. You want to add water to your mix. If not it is too sour. You want it to taste like tangy kool-aid BEFORE you add it to any liquor.

Ok, add your mix and fill up your shaker or glass the rest of the way. Squeeze in some lime or lemon juice and a pinch of the margarita salt that you rim the glasses with. Now SHAKE.

Use a lime and wipe the top of a glass, dip the glass in the margarita salt, fill the glass with ice, drop in a lime and strain your magarita in the glass. I guarantee everyone will like it. That is one drink I have NEVER had a complaint on. Happy drinking.

Answer 3

Do not use the bottled margarita mix -- it tastes like shoe polish.

Dissolve 3/4 c. sugar in hot water, when it cools, add 1 cup each lemon and lime juice, preferably fresh squeezed. Chill. Save the peels for garnish.

I like a 3 to one mix to tequila ratio. Make sure both the tequila and mix are as cold as possible (tequila from the freezer, mix from the fridge) so it doesn't melt the ice, which dilutes the drink. This ratio is strong enough to taste the tequila, but isn't too strong that you can't keep drinking them.

Answer 4

Dennis went out of his way for the ten points. The only thing you need to know for a Margarita is Tequila, Trip Sec and Lime/Lemon juice. Bartending is all about using your imagination, thinking outside the box and making the drink your own. Make people want to come to your party for your Margarita's. Any monkey can pour in an ounce of this and a half ounce of that and make a good cocktail. Make it your own.

Have fun and happy mixing.
