Hi friends!
I've been gone for some time and for that I apologize. What I will not apologize for is the following recipe- Margarrrritas! Make sure to roll those r's. 'Rrrrritas! It's a party on your tongue!
Or on my rooftop, which is where I consumed the above-mentioned Margaritas. Having recently come into a wealth of Hiram Walker Triple Sec, I was in the perfect position to host the after-party for a group of downtrodden National's fans (the DC baseball team that is on a successful losing streak). Our spirits low (for those of us who'd been keeping score), we trudged up to my roof after a quick recon mission to secure some Tequila and lime juice. The sad and crusty lime you see above was dredged out of my fridge...it had just enough juice to allow me to rim the glasses with salt. Whew. Beggars can't be choosers, which is also why we were using Rose's Lime instead of freshly squozen juice. Squozen, I said it.
The recipe we followed was very simple. Would you like to know it? Are you sure? This recipe is for individual drinks, but I created a very large jugful. Be careful if this is your intent, jugfuls of Margaritas can ruin a perfectly delightful Sunday, if consumed on Saturday. Just be wise, and make sure you have plenty of friends around to sop up your jugful of fiery, Mexican spirits. See aforementioned jugful below, as the sun, and the contents of the jug, are disappearing.
