    I like them frozen (made a bunch last night) but I also like them in Martini form- 3 pt Tequila, 1.5 pt Lime Juice, splash of OJ, 1 pt sprite.  Shaken with ice and in a martini glass... for me NO SALT

    Tequila-
    Exotica Silver
    El Jimador Silver

    Sipping though-
    Herradura Reposado
    XLBGE, LBGE, Charbroil Gas Grill, Weber Q2000, Old Weber Kettle, Rectec RT-B380, Yeti 65, Yeti Hopper 20, RTIC 20, RTIC 20 Soft Side - Too many drinkware vessels to mention.

    Not quite in Austin, TX City Limits
    Just Vote- What if you could choose "none of the above" on an election ballot? Millions of Americans do just that, in effect, by not voting.  The result in 2016: "Nobody" won more counties, more states, and more electoral votes than either candidate for president.

    Herradura Silver and Cointreau work for my margaritas on the rocks. 

    This is me.  Never Grand Marnier in a margarita.  It's cognac.  Gross (gross in a margarita, cognac itself is nice).

    Was out last night and enjoyed two,  one with Cointreau, one with Grand Marnier.

    Blue weber Agave Tequila, Lime + the orange liquor on the rocks, glass rimmed with salt. 

    Cointreau was lighter, more refreshing but slightly less orange flavor.

    Grand Marnier made a fancier looking drink. They didn't float the GM, but let it settle to the bottom where it made a nice fade at the bottom of the glass.  There was more orange flavor, yet it wasn't as crisp.

    I enjoyed both, but I liked the Cointreau better, and I realized I'm out so I will need to pick some up soon.

    Absolutely NO bottled margarita mixers, way to much sugar and margaritas aren't supposed to be sweet (I think). I'm a purist...just tequila, triple sec, and fresh lime juice... Shaken and strained into a salt rimmed martini glass. And I'm not even picky on the brand of tequila. And yea, note to self, only have 1, then switch to wine!
    This. Shot of tequila, shot of lime juice, cap full of triple sec, shake with ice and you are done.
