Jimmy Buffett's perfect Margarita Recipe

[Mark Johnson]

I have dedicated some brain cell to this one!Undoubtedly, it's important to start with a week from hell. However, whatever his motivation is I am certain that Jimmy Buffett has very few disastrous weeks.Now for the rest of us..Fill shaker with broken cubed icesqueeze two fresh lime wedges into shakeradd 2oz of Cuervo 1800add 1/2 oz of Cuervo whiteadd 1-1/4 oz of Roses Lime Juiceadd 1/2 oz of Bols Triple Sec.add splash of Bols Orange CuracaoCover shakerShake vigorously (the shaker, not your ass)Rim outside of glass with lime peel.Salt outside of glass with Kosher Salt (who knew this to be a religious experience? (I guess with enough of these you may see the face of God!)add fresh ice to glassStrain mixture over iceSqueeze in one lime wedge, and toss the rind over left shoulder.Let me know if you use the shot glass for round two, and thereafter. By the time you get yours made everybody else will be in Margaritville!If after 3 or 4 of these baby's you don't need to take a nap, you're a better person than me!PS This recipe forwarded to me from my friend Frank.

Try 1/2-oz Grand Marnier instead of the Triple Sec and Orange Curacao...Hey, how's life in Westport? I miss sailing on Long Island Sound!

Has anybody tried it...

...it with Jimmy Buffett's new Margaritaville Tequila?

Sammy Hagar

Not Jimmy's but Sammy Hagar's blue agave Cabo Wabo is outstanding.

I have tried it

I had on with Margaritaville tequlia at one of the Margaritaville Cafe's.It was very good. I'm currently lookingfor a supplier near by.

 

[Paul Akers]

Only Florida Right Now.

My son went to West Palm Beach in December to see his show and bought some while there. Currently, it's only available in FL. I have it, but haven't tried it - yet.

Texas very soon!!!

Jimmy knows that Texas KNOWS tequila and was here in Austin just last week promoting his new brand. Word is, it'll be here soon. Hope it's a little more reasonable than Cabo Wabo!!!
