Apart from the quality of the limes and or lemons or whatever fruit you decide to bastardise this fine drink with, the obvious qualatative thing is the tequila. Is it wrong to use expensive anejo? I don’t think so. Is it right to use cheap ass blanco? Absolutely not. The choice of base spirit is essential. The old adage “garbage in garbage out” springs to mind. Dang nabbit, buy the best you can afford. Save to buy the stuff you can’t afford. Get a second job, steal, kill or whatever. A great Margarita is nothing without it’s lifeblood: tequila.

I don’t really endorse murder or theft
