margarita aficionados (and amateurs, too) [View all]

what is your ratio? 3-2-1, 2-1-1, 5-3-6?

I usually start with 5-3-6 and then play to taste. almost always use key limes and they can really vary on tartness. I also tend to add just a touch of agave syrup to sweeten just a little more.

I also use decent tequila - usually a reposado because that is what I most often have on hand, Cointreau for the orange.

oh and happy not-really-a-Mexican-holiday. but good excuse for some asada and a margarita!
