There aren’t many summertime pleasures as lovely as a truly fresh margarita. This recipe is equal parts tequila, triple sec, and fresh lime juice; it’s the fresh juice that sets this far apart from other ‘ritas out there. Be wary of the tequila, though – it will sneak up on you.

1:1:1 Margaritas

Ingredients:

  • 1 part freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 part tequila
  • 1 part triple sec

Pour all ingredients over ice and shake well. Pour into a salt-rimmed glass to serve.

Serves one to 1,000, depending on quantities.

    In 2001 (or so the date of the email tells me), I was subscribed to an email list entitled “Disgusting Drink of the Month” through the now-defunct Emazing.com. For some reason, I printed that June’s drink, and it has been mixed in to my recipe file ever since. This drink uses enough different types of booze to make up for last week’s non-alcoholic drink, and then some.

    Passed Out Naked on the Bathroom Floor

    Ingredients:

    • 1/4 ounce peppermint schnapps
    • 1/4 ounce Jägermeister
    • 1/4 ounce gold tequila
    • 1/4 ounce Bacardi 151

    Combine all ingredients in a shot glass, and “prepare your innards for a feeling that goes a little beyond warm and fuzzy”, or so says June 2001′s Disgusting Drink of the Month newsletter.

    Serves one.
