This was a little too strong for me and my guests. I think next time I will double the juice used in it. But it was a great combination of flavors.

    Pretty tasty!!! The big bummer for us is that we had to use navel oranges and we were missing that lovely color that makes this drink so pretty. I think I'll cut back on the lime a bit next time-- they added such a lovely bite but were just a tad too acidic. Will definitely try again and will tweak it to our liking. Thanks for an awesome post!

    This is the perfect margarita. It's not too sweet, and the other flavors don't block out the tequila, which I love. I'm too darn cheap for Cointreau, so I used Triple Sec. Still tasty. I'll be making more of these!

    DH & I thoroughly enjoyed this drink tonight. DH is usually a purist when it comes to Margaritas but he said Hey! This is not a girlie drink, guys will like it too! We would make these for our large dinner group. Thank you for posting!
