Hi kids – I'm new to this tribe and thought I’d go ahead and contribute.
A trip to Rosarito Beach 10 years ago inspired me to create a Baja style Margarita. My initial attempts were tasty but so strong I was hammered after the second one. I worked on the recipe below for almost a year until I got the taste that I wanted with just enough booze for social lubrication but not so much that I am slobbering before the party ends. Enjoy !!
******************************************************************************
The favorite Party Margarita recipe. This recipe makes approximately 1 gallon, a Coleman jug works great.
The day before I need a gallon of Margaritas, I fill a small margarine tub about 3/4 and put that in the freezer, the ice chunk can be easily popped out when needed.
Now lets talk about Tequila . . . Please do not use Jose Cuevo gold in this recipe. Jose Cuevo has an intense smoky flavor and aroma that completely overwhelms the other flavors. I use Margaritaville Tequila Oro, but any medium quality (Trader Joe’s Zapopan Tequila Reposado is o.k.), mellow gold Tequila will do (if you are not a Tequila expert, which I am not, look for a 750 ml bottle in the $12.00 to $20.00 range).
Ingredients:
1 750 ml bottle of Margaritaville Tequila Oro (approx 25.5 oz)
1 750 ml bottle Triple Sec (approx 25.5 oz)
1 12 oz can frozen Limeade concentrate*
16 oz Fresh squeezed Lime juice **
- Dump all ingredients into a 1 gallon jug
- Add ½ the recommended water for the Limeade
- Drop in the chunk of ice
- Make sure the lid is tight and give the thing a good shake
- Serve over ice
* The frozen Limeade concentrate should be readily available, use either a store brand or MinuteMaid, I do not recommend the Bacardi frozen mixer in this recipe.
** After purchasing nearly every style of manual and electric juicer (I really have quite a collection), my local Wild Oats market now carries 16 oz bottles of organic not-from-concentrate lime juice (Santa Cruz organic), highly recommended.

Well, sounds like your initial attempts were the best!
*badum tshhH!*
But...seriously. ;)
THANKS for the recipe!
I'm so going to try this
Have you tried putting a splash of fresh squeeze OJ in your 'ritters?
That's the way I had them in Cabo and I'm hooked on making them that way at home.
Most luscious indeed! -

Mon, August 13, 2007 - 7:51 PMFor sweetness try adding half of the recommended triple sec and substitute with the other half of triple sec with patron citron. If you like a little sweet in your margy! -

Fri, August 24, 2007 - 5:59 PMThanks for the input guys
I hope some of you have actually tried this recipe, it's a crowd pleaser.
BONUS !! - if there is some left at the end of the night when you bring your jug home - no really, it does happen - it will keep at room temperature for about five days, no flavor degradation, no spoilage. I have also kept it for a month, in a glass bottle in the frig , no flavor degradation. Who keeps a good premix for a month? I know, but it was at my office, we actually work there.

Sun, August 26, 2007 - 1:57 AMI do love tequila because nothing mixes with it satisfactorily.Daaaaah!
Seriously, Your recipe sounds faboo and I like that you tossed out Jose's Gold elixir. That stuff is the Night Train of tequilas and I marvel at how much they get for it. Margaritaville tequila, I have never had- will check it out though. Oh, but I do love all that fresh lime juice in your recipe-
Drink on!
