Opinions on Margaritas.. Girl drink or fair game

Post by bluemonk »

Before 2 weeks ago I had only had one. Didn't care for it...moved on to the normal Hendricks and Tonic.

2 weeks ago my GF made them with Tevado tequilla. 2 oz per drink... which turned to eye balling it... which increased the tequilla considerably as the night went on.

I'll be damned if I didn't find myself going to the blender myself to make big batches of the things...


It has become one of the drinks we drink at home almost nightly... start with a few beer... move to that and close with port.

so... i suppose I am now a fan of these damned things.

just wondering a general feel on margaritas...

I'll have a marg if I'm out & about eating Mexican, but it's never something I make for myself.

Of course, that could be more to do with laziness than anything else.

Oh yes.
I would make it for myself, being as I bring home the tequila on a semi-regular basis.
I pass a candy store every weeknight on the way to the bus stop.

The cauldron of bubbling margaritas at Skot's Halloween party = passed out rooster awakened only to remove his pants. There was trick-or-treating several days before Halloween, and the kicking of some lady's station wagon. I did many bad things that night, and it only cemented my affection for that beautiful drink.

Margaritas are Absolutely fair game. Don't make them with sweet and sour though. Purely fresh lime juice and a good middle ground tequila.

Daquiris on the other hand are resident: sodomy land, it doesnt matter how you dress them up or if you drink them with your "gal pals".

I really dig margaritas on the rocks...it's usually on special at restaurants and it has a lot of bang for your buck...I also like making them at home on occasion...I don't get fancy with em...just some margarita mixer and decent tequila.

good thing I have an ice maker.

Jimmy Buffet's "Wasted Away Again in Margaritaville" should put an end to this foolishness.

Margaritas are definitly OK. I have a generator so I can twist up a batch or seven when I go camping.

"The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane"-Marcus Aurelius

tequila is a pretty macho liqour. and a straight up, salted margarita is a damn tasty beverage that ain't for the meek or weak. i still wouldn't call a frozen one a sissy drink exactly. they employ a stealthy approach to inebriation as opposed to a frontal assault. there is also the danger of brain freeze.

patron plata
patron citronage
pama (pamagranite liquor)
fresh pamaganite juice
simple syrup
fresh lime juice
in a pitcher over ice ...
