Ten Ten Pie told me the trick to making a
perfect Margarita is Tequila, Controy (Orange Liqueur) and lemon - equal parts
of each.
Café Rama makes theirs with essentially
the same ingredients except they use Madrilena Jarabe Natural instead of the
Controy and a lime not a lemon. They mix two parts of tequila, one part
Madrilena Jarabe Natural and lime juice. They also use a splash of OJ.
When making a Margarita for one, I squeeze
three limes or in the case of Ten Ten's recipe, one lemon.
Also, my old standard which is sweeter is:
1 part tequila
1 part Triple Sec
1 part Jose Cuervo Margarita Mix
1/2 part Roses Lime Juice
Do not substitute the Roses Lime. That is
the key ingredient.
Happy tasting and let me know when you’ve
mastered them. I’ll be right over!
Buen Apetito!
