Bob T.\'s Margarita recipe.
Ok, use all ingredients to taste. I'm not going to tell you to use only one shot of tequila, if that isn't going to work for you.
Juice some lemons and limes. I usually use a 2-1 ratio of limes to lemons, but like I said to taste. I think lemons taste a little better than limes, so I don't use all limes like some recipes do. Strain the juice, or get the seeds out some other way.
A touch of almond extract. (enough so that you know its there as the cook, but not enough so that others can identify what the mystery ingredient is.)
A little brown sugar, or real maple syrup. Not enough to overpower the citrus, but just enough to take the edge off the sourness.
About one fourth of a shot of grand marnier/drink.
About a shot of tequila/drink.
One option that works well espeically when served at parties, is to add a slice of pineapple, it makes the drink a little fruitier, and sweeter.
Put it all into the blender with some ice, or, just serve it over ice.
Later,
BT.
