1. Lemon juice, lime juice, tequila, Cointreau or Triple Sec, and salt
...and you may choose blended or on the rocks. Those are your choices, pal.

2. I choose Patron Tequila, Slim Guy/Skinny Chick Mix, OJ and Triple Sec + Kiwi + Pinapple Chunk
The chunks make it!

10. +1000000
Keep it simple. Keep it classic.

(Don't get me started on what they're doing to martinis these days.)

14. Martini = Gin, Vermouth, Ice, Olive, Lemon Peel Twist
Edited on Wed Nov-23-11 10:21 PM by Taverner
Do not forget the lemon

Vodka Martinis are not Martinis...

4. Personally, I like my tequila (actually mezcal) straight (having dined on many MANY worms)...

... but, when it comes to mixed drinks (frozen, absolutely), I actually
prefer Daiquiris to Margaritas and I have no trouble putting any kind
of fruit that's tasty in either.

12. A man after my own heart. Mezcal all the way. Pechuga.
I've only been able to afford one bottle so far, but still have the bottle. Mezcal de Pechuga, as I understand it, is the perfect balance between flora and fauna.

Del Maguey, Single Village Mezcal...

6. No.
If it has any fruit other than lime, or the orange from the triple sec, it ain't a Margarita. It might be tasty with pineapple and kiwi, but...



Yes, I am a snobby Margarita purist. I admit it.

7. Here is my favorite magarita recipe...
1) Put all that foo-foo bullshit off to the side.

2) Drink a shot of tequila.

3) Repeat as necessary.
