My Margatini recipe starts out simple:
3 parts tequila (Milagro Reposado)
2 parts fresh lime juice
1 part agave nector
Shake and serve up with a half salt rim if desired

From there you can get creative.
Use key limes instead of regular limes
add a bit of meyer lemon juice
Add your floats if desired
Serve on the rocks if desired - NEVER FROZEN

I've found that all the best margaritas I've had follow the same basic "3-2-1" recipe, regardless of brand: 3 parts tequila, 2 parts lime, 1 part orange liquor, no salt, rocks ONLY. Of course, every mixologist adds their own touch, but the basics stay the same.

Geez, it's 11:45 and now I'm thirsty!
