This thread is prompted by my promise to post a fabulous margarita recipe.
1 blenderful = 45 oz
6 oz tequila - not the aged "sipping" kind. A 100% agave silver label is best for these
3 oz Grand Marnier
3 oz Cointreau
12 oz of a good sweet and sour mix
12-13 icecubes (my friend''s are from an ice maker so they are those crescent shaped ones. Adjust according to the size of your ice cubes - remember, we ain''t baking cakes here - the point is to become "happy")
8 oz Corona
Put all but the Corona in a blender. Blend. Add the Corona with just a tiny whirl or 2 right before serving.
Serve the usual way, limed, rimmed, however you prefer margaritas.
Note: Don''t substitute on the Grand Marnier, since it is cognac based and if you remove it you will remove a layer of flavor that can''t be replaced.
