Steps:
- 1. PREP WORK: Plan ahead and it will go smoothly. Give your margarita glasses a quick rinse and set them in the freezer for an hour or so, and they will have a beautiful rim of frost on them when you take them out. (If you are making margaritas for 30 or 40 people, you can use small martini glasses, set them on a tray and put the tray in the freezer.) Slice the lime into wedges and cut the center of each with a sharp knife so it rests on the rim of the glass. Have your margarita salt poured into a saucer ready to use.
- 2. MAKE THE MARGARITAS: Add 1 shot of Bols Triple Sec, 1/3 cup Cointreau, 2/3 cup of Jose Cuervo tequila.
- 3. Fill crushed ice up to under the top part of the handle of the blender. This will be a little over three to four cups of crushed ice. (My blender is an Oster.)
- 4. Pour 2 cups of Mr. and Mrs. T's Sweet and Sour mix up to the top, be careful not to overflow when you start the blender. Blend fast. It will be nice and slushy.
- 5. Take your frosty glasses and a piece of sliced lime and run it around the lip of the rim, and immediately roll the rim in the margarita salt. Pour the frozen margarita mixture into the glasses, and add a slice of lime to the rim. This makes 3 old-fashioned bowl-shaped margarita glasses or three of today's tapered glasses. Just before drinking, squeeze your lime slice into your drink, and drop it into your margarita, stir, and Enjoy!
- 6. Trivia: Did you know that the old-fashioned bowl-shaped margarita glasses are hard to find anymore. So if you run across any at flea markets, they are good to collect. I have about 30 and they are beautiful.

Tips:
- Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice is essential for a great margarita. Bottled lime juice simply doesn't have the same flavor. If you don't have fresh limes on hand, you can use bottled lime juice in a pinch, but be sure to add a little extra to compensate for the lack of flavor.
- Choose a good tequila: The quality of your tequila will make a big difference in the taste of your margarita. Look for a tequila that is 100% agave and has a smooth, clean flavor. If you're not sure which tequila to choose, ask your local liquor store clerk for recommendations.
- Use a good orange liqueur: Orange liqueur is another important ingredient in a margarita. Look for an orange liqueur that is made with real oranges and has a sweet, citrusy flavor. Cointreau and Grand Marnier are two popular brands of orange liqueur, but there are many other good ones available.
- Don't skimp on the salt: Salt is an essential ingredient in a margarita. It helps to balance out the sweetness and sourness of the other ingredients. Be sure to rim your glass with salt before you add the margarita.
- Serve your margarita chilled: Margaritas are best served chilled. You can either chill the ingredients ahead of time or you can serve the margarita over ice.
Conclusion:
The margarita is a classic cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. With its refreshing flavor and beautiful presentation, the margarita is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cocktail, give the margarita a try. You won't be disappointed!
