Kay's post said: The recipe given here is modified from one in _Mexican Kitchen_ by Rick Bayless. Rick Bayless calls it Frontera's Gold Margaritas. I won't because it isn't anymore. Kay Margarita 1 2/3 cup Sauza Comemorativo tequila 1/4 cup Grand Marnier 1/2 cup lime juice 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest 1/4 cup sugar Lime wedges Coarse salt 1. Steeping the margarita mixture. Mix the tequila, Grand Marnier, lime juice, lime zest, and sugar in a glass or plastic pitcher until the sugar dissolves. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours (but no more than 24 hours). Strain into another pitcher. 2. Finishing and serving the margaritas. Rub the rims of 8 6- to 8-ounce glasses with a lime wedge, then dip the rims in a dish of coarse salt. Serve the margaritas on the rocks in the prepared glasses. Christine |

Happy Mothers day. Dimitri Oh!Oh!Oh! I have tequila and triple sec! I have another drink option now! (ok, so shaken not frozen and blendered...but is the salt traditional or an aberration?) definitely on the rocks and definitely salt. the salt makes the drink, as far as i'm concerned. your pal, blake |

I thought the first frozen daiquiri I had was a bit strange. -- Wayne Boatwright ------------------------------------------- Monday, 05(V)/12(XII)/08(MMVIII) ------------------------------------------- Countdown till Memorial Day 1wks 6dys 1hrs 55mins ------------------------------------------- Pandemonium doesn't reign here...
