Lately in my spare time I've been pondering and trying new frozen margarita recipes. When I first started making them I was using whatever was available (mostly in part because I was only 19...oops). It started off with just the Bacardi frozen margarita mix and Sauza blanco tequila. It was good for what it was, until my friend started using Grand Marnier for on the rocks ritas so I decided to throw it in and liked it. About a year later another friend decided to get Sauza Conmemorativo and wow, it was a whole lot smoother! Now that I'm 21 and can conduct more testing legally, I decided I would try a different tequila. I bought a bottle of 1800 Anejo with high hopes, but the aged flavoring is too overpowering to me. I've tinkered with frozen margarita mix vs limeade, Cointreau vs Grand Marnier, and various tequilas and ingredients but still haven't settled upon one good recipe.
So does anyone here have any good frozen margarita recipes? Or any drink recipes period. I thought it'd be a fun thread to start. And of course, if I settle upon something I like I'll post it!

The margarita in the bucket thing makes a good one.

Schmoozers
1/2 cup pudding, any flavor
1/2 cup Jello, any flavor
1/2-1 cup fluid, any kind
(All Cold)
Milk-Ice (ice cubes made of milk) to make everything add to about 2 cups
Blend all. Adjust fluid to ice ratio to achieve desired thickness
Best thing is, this recipe can be used for either fun stuff (ie the kids can't touch it) or goody-two shoes boring stuff, even sugar free (I'm diabetic, it's important)
My favorite combinations
Choc Fudge Pudding---Strawberry, cherry, or raspberry jello---Strawberry, Raspberr, or Cherry kool-aid, or sprite
White Choc, cheesecake or Vanilla pudding---Peach Jello---Sprite or Peach soda
Lemon Jello---Lemon Pudding---Lemonade or Sprite

Scene: Virtual Reality Martini Bar
I'm sipping a dirty Goose 'tini. In walks a hearty Vermontian guy, steps up to the bar and orders in a gruff tone, "Appletini, sour."
And then I choke on my olive I'm laughing so hard.

Haha! Thats where you are WRONG!
I always order my Martini's with a tone that is a cross between a purr and a rumble.

Better hope there's someone handy with a heimlich, Duchess. It'd be a right shame to have such an ignominous event described in your eulogy.

sauza tequila isnt bad and fairly cheap. patron is quite smooth.
margarita mix, tequila and a splash of either a triple sec(like grand marnier), amaretto or hennessey. but not all 3.
