If you put ANY sweet and sour mix in your margarita it is already ruined. Here is the recipe that I use.2 parts tequila 1 part orange liqueur or triple sec(will make it weaker)1 part fresh lime juice(no bottle)1/2 part simple syrup(optional) Kris
Hello there,I am looking for the recipe to make a Margarita like Applebee's has, called "The Perfect Margarita".A quick Google search yields many results in forums and blogs claiming "this" is Applebee's recipe, but often times people will chime in with comments making corrections to the recipe saying that they are bartenders at an Applebee's.Yesterday I spent $120 buying the various ingredients needed. Every search I've read at least agrees on the liquors involved, but quantities and 'additives' seem to be where the disagreement comes into play.Here's what I bought:- Cuervo 1800 Reposado- Cointreau- Grand Marnier- Sweetened lime juice- Sweet and sour mixDue to the cost of these items, I really don't want to play around experimenting. Last night I cracked the bottles open and made my wife and I our first "Perfects". It wasn't bad, but if I didn't know better I'd swear I was drinking an Amaretto sour. A little too much 'bite' from the sweet and sour mix was tasted so I added some sugar. Really didn't help much.Any help would be appreciated.Bob

Just give me two fingers of Patron on the side. I'll mix them in my mouth!
Minutemaid used to have a Limeaid concentrate that was decent for making larger batches.
Went to their web site but didn't see it. Maybe it's in with the unfrosted blueberry Pop Tarts on Amazon and eBay
