Robin's Margarita Recipe
Serves 4
2 oz. Lime Juice
12 oz. Sweet and Sour
6 oz. Jose Cuervo Tequila
2 oz. Triple Sec
3/4 tsp. sugar
2 -2 1/2 cups of ice
Add ice to the blender first and then the above ingredients. You might have to adjust the amount of ice you use depending how thick you like your margaritas. Play with this until you get the consistency that you like.
If your guests like salt, rub the rim of a margarita glass with lime and dip in margarita salt. Pour margaritas into these cool margarita glasses and garnish with a wheel of lime.

Margarita Recipe For A Crowd
2 liters of Jose Cuervo Tequila
1 liter Triple Sec
2 liters of Sweet N Sour
1 bottle of lime juice (Like Roses lime juice)
1/4 cup sugar
margarita salt
slices of lime
Mix the above in a large pot and mix with a wisk to mix in the sugar. Use a measuring cup with a pour spout and a funnel (if you don't have good aim!) and pour the mix back into all the bottles you just emptied.
Store these in the refrigerator and you are good to go.
When it's time to make another batch of margaritas, fill your blender 3/4 or so with ice and pour in your mix. You will want to cover the ice with mix. After you do this a time or two you will learn how much ice to use depending on the consistency you like.
Your margaritas will turn out great every time.
You can rub the rim of your margarita glass with lime and then dip it in salt. You can also put a slice of lime on the rim for a festive look.
