    In my opinion,margarita's are some of the most sexy, fancy, delicious drinks. My favorite is the Mango margrita. The mango flavor presents a delicious tropical flavor that my taste buds just love to go crazy over. If you are searching for a delicious treat, then treat yourself to a mango margarita.

    I like a good Margarita on a hot day, but being a purist when it comes to alcohol, I'm not really great on watering down good Tequila with crushed ice and lemon juice.

    A blender full of these on a hot summer afternoon can make for a very passable day indeed. And its my favorite morning wake up drink when I'm being indolent in Mexico....

    Great choice when you are feeling Festive. I prefer mine on the ROcks, but frozen works well on a hot summer day. 1 1/2 oz 1800 Tequila, 1/2 oz premium triple sec (preferably Cointreau),1 oz lime juice Rub lime on the rim of the glass, and dip in salt. Shake all ingredients with ice, and serve garnished with a lime. You can use another type of Tequila if you want, but I've always preferred the 1800 Silver for Margaritas.

    From messing around with making my own, I've decided that I like them with more lemon juice than lime, but the lime juice is still essential. I haven't found what I consider to be the perfect juice to tequila ratio, as that just seems to depend on how strong you want it, but I prefer the lemon to lime juice ratio to be about 2 to 1.

    These can be good if your bartender knows his or her stuff.A salted rim is essential,and the ones that come out of a machine suck ass.Also AVOID phoney "margaritas" sold already made in a bottle,or worse yet,the pre-packaged "mix".

    Margaritas are so varied in quality. Unless you are willing to drop top coin on nice liquor to go inside it then the vast majority of what you will taste is the sour mix. In my experiences, most sour mixes are way too sweet, or too sour and acidic. Frozen margaritas are pretty tacky too, it's like tequila put into a 7-11 slurpee.

    I like tequila so Margarita's are wonderful. I don't care if they are liquid or frozen they are a great blend of some strong alcohol without tasting like it. I love it served with lime juice because I think it gives it a refreshing flavor!

    Ive really gotta be in the mood for a margarita in order to drink one; however, if it is a hot day, and Im at a bar that serves frozen margarita's, well, sign me up! Nothing beats a frozen margarita on a scalding hot day!

    I think margaritas are best on the rocks--never frozen! Silver tequila is a must. The harsh flavor of a gold tequila ruins it. Fresh lime juice is also essential. Margaritas pack a powerful punch in terms of percentage of alcohol due to the tequila. I think that in the summer nothing beats margaritas when you want a refreshing cocktail!

    first it's sour, then it's sweet... and then it kicks you in the "A". So yes, it is the best drink in the world (followed by Micheladas, of course).

    My weakness on a summer night with a warm breeze, goes well with a tastey cigar and good conversation.

    Is there a more festive drink than the margarita? I like mine liquid not frozen and my special mixture is much less sweet than most.

    One of my favorite drinks when made from scratch.  (The mixes all seem to have an aftertaste to me)  With a little fresh lime juice, simple syrup, good tequila and Cointreau, on the rocks in a salt rimmed glass, this is heaven on a hot summer day.

    The perfect mixed drink, though the news hasn't reached Boston yet, where some bars don't even carry tequila (the horrors!). Snobs have begun to class up the margarita in all kinds of ways, but the truth is that it's hard to make a bad one. While I have no objection to the snooty mixers made by the likes of Williams-Sonoma, all you need is some lime juice, a bag of frozen strawberries, or pretty much any fruit. (Or try something less conventional ... Maya in S.F. makes an amazing hibiscus or tamarind margarita.) Use any tequila but Pepe Lopez, which is better used for cleaning out the kitchen sink afterwards.

    A good one is tough to beat when youre at the beach on a hot day. But too much sweetness really gets to me after a while.

    I like a good margarita made with patron.......smooth and yummy.  Better if hand made...some of the mixes some places use are awful.

    Margaritas are so trendy right now, that every place has several versions of how they make them. You can hardly ever go wrong with this choice though. Adapted in so many ways, it always requires tequilla, and usually lime juice as well.

    Love 'em, especially the strawberry ones. But no salt, please--if it has salt in it, I feel like I'm gargling!

    This is so easy to get right. Don't believe those who would make a dark art out of it. Just take equal measures of your garden-variety tequila, cointreau and slightly sweetened lime juice. Pop it in the blender with ice and Bob's your uncle. Serve in a glass with a salt-glazed rim with a lime wedge, with which you can start food fights with your friends after your second round. If you really want, you can use some high end tequila, but I think after the cheering effects of one cocktail, claiming to be able to discern the quality of the tequila (unless it is god-awful) has something of a 'Princess and the Pea' aspect to it.

    If you can get a good one, ok. Make the bartender mix it in front of you using real mixers and a better brand of tequila.
