MARGARITAS FOR A CROWD

Provided by Food Network

Categories     beverage

Time 30m

Yield 20 to 24 old-fashioned margaritas

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 750-milliliter bottle silver tequila (use a high-quality, 100 percent agave tequila)
1 to 2 cups (1/3 to 2/3 of a 750-milliliter bottle) Cointreu or Triple Sec
1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice, plus several tablespoons extra for rimming the glasses
Several tablespoons coarse kosher-type salt, for rimming the glasses
About 1 gallon ice cubes

Steps:

  • Just before serving, in a half gallon pitcher combine the tequila, the minimum amount of Cointreau or Triple Sec and the lime juice. Taste and add more orange liqueur if you think your margaritas need more sweet oranginess to balance the other flavors. Remember, you're tasting it warm and undiluted; when chilled and diluted, the flavors will be mellower and the lime's tartness will be more attractive.
  • Pour several tablespoons of lime juice onto a small plate and several tablespoons coarse salt onto another. Have martini glasses at hand (chill them for an extra special touch).
  • As your guests ask for their margaritas, invert a glass into the plate with the lime juice to moisten rim, then lightly dip into the plate with the salt. For each drink measure 2 ounces (1/4 cup) of the margarita mixture into a cocktail shaker. If you have a 2-ounce ladle that you can keep in the pitcher, measuring goes much faster. Add ice cubes (5 cubes for 1, 8 for 2, 10 for 3). Secure the lid and top and shake vigorously for 10 to 15 seconds. Strain into the salt crusted glasses and hand off to the lucky recipients

Tips:

  • Choose ripe limes: The riper the limes, the more juice they will yield and the better your margaritas will taste. Look for limes that are deep green in color and feel heavy for their size.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice is essential for making the best margaritas. Bottled lime juice can be used in a pinch, but it will not produce the same flavor as fresh lime juice.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients will help to create a smooth and refreshing margarita. Be sure to chill your tequila, lime juice, and orange liqueur before making your margaritas.
  • Use a good quality tequila: The quality of your tequila will greatly affect the taste of your margaritas. Choose a tequila that is 100% agave and has a smooth, mellow flavor.
  • Don't over-shake your margaritas: Over-shaking your margaritas will make them watery and dilute the flavor. Shake your margaritas just until they are combined.
  • Serve your margaritas immediately: Margaritas are best served immediately after they are made. If you need to make them ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.

Lime sherbet margaritas are a delicious and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
