My friend is going to the Jimmy Buffet concert in Raleigh and wants to make Margaritas really bad, he was looking all over the interwebz for the best recipe, but I told him to look no further than the collective intelligence of the huddle.

Anyone have any good recommendations? Good to note that we are in college so we can't buy patron or anything ridiculously expensive. We are above drinking Aristocrat tequila though, that is a guaranteed puking night.

What say ye huddle?

thank you in advance for any helpful advice

I guess if you are low on cash, you can get some of that margarita mix and just add the tequila....but try not to go cheap on the tequila. Someone at the abc store should help you pick something out (oh if you aren't doing shots, don't go with gold).

mix is more expensive. save on mix. buy real tequila. Sauza makes good margaritas.

cuervo is 1/2 sugar water, 1/2 grain alcohol with a little flavoring.

Sauza Hornitos, triple sec, lime juice, oj, sour mix.

skip the sour mix and add soda water if u want to cut back the sugar/heartburn.

This. OJ makes a huge difference in a margarita as far as taste and appearance goes.

DO NOT under any circumstance make frozen margs. Don't do it. No point...all the alcohol just soaks to the bottom anyways.

If you can afford it, buy some Grand Marnier to put in there as well...makes a big difference with just a little and will get you way drunker faster.

Sauza is a great one to go cheap with, but it is not 100% agave. You can step it up a little more and not break the bank with some Milagro or some 1800.

Just remember, the more expensive the tequila, the less of a horrible hangover you will have.

<-----forced to take tequila/margarita classes when waiting tables. Stupid restaurant, but I can walk you through the entire process of making tequila!

unless you keep mixing it....frozen is my favorite kind!!!

I'm with you on the GM though...a little splash goes a long way

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
