A little too much
orange, in our opinion. Next time we're going to
reduce the orange liquor to 1oz total. Otherwise
this tasted very close!
THE BEST
margarita!! I had one at Applebee's last
night--looked up the recipe this morning, and am
enjoying one as I type this!
Thank you. I also
had my first last nite. I'm on the way to the
liquor store to stock up!
The best margarita
ever. :)
Absolutely to DIE
for! One will do 'ya!
Your recipes are
super great! I made the Appleby's Margarita's at
a dinner party and they were the best!
I used to bartend
at Applebee. Applebee's uses Cuervo reposado for
the tequila. And also uses 2 tablespoons of
simple syrup [1/4 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup of water,
1 zested lime (use a grater to remove the green
part of the lime skin]. otherwise this is a right
on recipe. My favorite margarita.
This “Perfect
Margarita” recipe is a knock-out. A VERY
strong drink, but it’s really smooth. They
taste so good that you have to pace yourself or
risk falling off your chair. A+!
CORECTION: The tequila is Cuervo 1800 Reposado
I am still a bartender at
Applebee's and is 1.25oz 1800 Reposado, .5oz Gran Marnier, .5oz
Cointreau, 1oz fresh lime jc, .5oz simple syrup or 1 sugar packet
and 4oz of sweet/sour
what about the green olive? That was
what we always thought set this margarita apart from the others
i am a bartender at applebee's and
yes, this is the exact recipe we use for the perfect margarita,
except you do not pour it over an ice filled glass. Instead, keep
the ice in the shaker tin and pour it into a martini glass with
salt on the rim. Enjoy everyone!
One of the best margaritas I've had
since Mexico.I added my prefered tequila and am enjoying one now!!
You know, what also makes a Margaria
great is the type of Sweet N Sour you use...I've found the best
"excluding making your own" to be Lasco Lemon and Lime, it's a
powder packet. You can also go to Applebees and on a good day they
will sell you their SnS for 4 dollars, and I think it makes 1 or 2
gallons of SnS
BEST MARGARITA EVER!!!!! Had to find
this after ejoying them at Applebee's. We tried making them but
the ingredient we left out was the sweetened lime juice...I am
sure that once that is added, it will be the "Perfect Margarita".
Thanks for posting this :) CHEERS!
I absolutely loved this drink! It's my
new favorite, thanks, Applebee's!
Loved it! Had one on my 1st date
before watching ¨Rambo¨...lol
Only way to make it better is to use
Patron instead of 1800!!
use fresh lime juice {the juice of 1
lime} not roses lime juice just too sweet
The best drink I've ever had. It's so
good I'd rather got to Applebee's to drink vs. eat. LOL!!!
the very best Margarita I've ever
had!!!
It tastes just like at the restaurant!
Only problem is it's cheaper to make them at home so I might be
tempted to have one too many! :)
who cares who bartend @ applebee's the
fact is, this is a great drink and only applebee's knows how to
make them I try one at O'charleys it was good but not like
applebee's...I have to have many to get a buzz but they are soooo
good....I like how applebee's leaves the drink in the shaker...now
I bartend in my own home and serve one hell of a perfect margarita
My neice made these for us when we
visited her in Wyoming recently. I'm not a big drinker, but this
recipe makes a PERFECT Margarita! I will be making these myself on
occassion!
Maybe I used the wrong sweet and sour
mix but I didn't like the lime taste. Tasted like that lime juice
in those plastic squeeze bottles. Next time I'm going to take the
time to make a simple syrup with the lime zest and fresh lime
juice. I think that would make all the difference.
OH MY GOSH! I am soooo hooked on this
drink. I have withdrawals if I don't have one atleast once a week.
Add an olive for extra! The olive with the sour is awesome!!!
Tried it first with the Cuervo gold
and found it good but way too tart with the sweet and sour, tried
it again with reposado 1800 and it was perfect, definately have it
with the 1800 instead of gold.
