that you can buy at Winn Dixie.
Here is a recipe that I got from Eric Felten who used to write about drinks for the WSJ, it is incredible, in my opinion. If you want an icy sour slurpee like deal to drink on for a while, this is not your recipe. If you want the original intent and taste, try it out. It blew me away and I can't drink a margarita any other way now. I usually put it in martini glasses. I also usually shake it until the shaker is so cold it hurts my hands, then serve it quick so that it's cold:
2 oz blanco tequila
1 oz Cointreau
¾ oz fresh lime juice
Shake with ice and strain into a stemmed cocktail glass or champagne
saucer that has been lightly rimmed (or not) with salt. And be sure that
your tequila is made from 100% agave.
