Fabulous recipe, this is one of the recipes I served in a carafe for our annual euchre BBQ and it was a big big hit...

This is a yummy margarita. I used corn syrup for the simple syrup and I didn't measure. I didn't put as much as requested probably. That way, it was perfect, not too sweet. I used triple sec. Thanks WiGal :) made for Gimme 5 tag game

Lovely color and a perfect amount of tequila, but it was just a little too sweet for me made as written. I would definitely cut back on the sugar next time. Made by a Saucy Senorita for ZWT5.
