House Margarita, Morales 100% Agave Tequila, Hiram Walker Orange Liqueur, lime and lemon. Agave nectar is too much. Too sweet, even though orange liqueur is light. Lemon seems like too much as well. Tequila tastes good. Average 5/10

House Margarita is the worst one yet. The mix is off and tequila and orange liqueur is extremely lacking. 1/10 this time around.

Svante's
Mexican Martini. Herradura Silver, Cointreau, Fresh Lime Juice, Olive Brine, Agave Nectar, garnished with olives. Definitely plenty of alcohol. Needs more Lime Juice and less Olive juice. Also too short on Cointreau. 3/10. Too much alcohol always gets an extra point. Would have been a 2 otherwise. Place just opened. Will try again in a few months just to be sure.

Updated version of Especial Margarita, with Camarena Silver Tequila, Patron Citrónge Liqueur, Tres Agave Nectar & fresh Lime Juice. Wow. Great tequila taste, orange taste and lime sweet and sour taste is not overpowering. Agave nectar, gives it just enough sweetness. I do believe I found a 10 this time. Last time was a 9 with Hornitos tequila. Yay!!!

T.G.I. Friday's
The BFM, Patròn Silver Tequila, Grand Marnier,organic agave, fresh lime juice, lemon juice. Actually just the right amount of extra sweetness from Grand Marnier and Agave juice. Patròn Silver Tequila is always a good base. Only problem is glass is too small. Would have been a 7 without the Patron. 8/10

Margaritaville
Uptown Margarita, Margarita ville good tequila, Cointreau Orange Liqueur with house Margarita blend topped with a Good an Gala float. Sweet & Sour mix is perfect, with just the right amount of tequila and orange Liqueur. 8/10. Margarita ville tequila is not that great. 1800 would have made it a 9 and Don Julio would have made it a 10.

Mexican Top Shelf Margarita:
Don Julio tequila, fresh lime juice, olive juice and Patron Citronage. Served plainly in a beer goblet with no slice of lime. Sweet and Sour mix is below par, and a little watery. 5/10, only because of Don Julio, otherwise it would have been lower.

AppleBee's
Blue Agave Rita. Suaza Blue tequila. Too sweet, with too much agave. No trace of triple sec, or any orange liqueur. Nowhere near enough tequila, or it is just not good tequila. 3/10, even though last time I was here it was a 6. Depends on the bartender.

Tequila Bar and Grill
Top Shelf Margarita, Don Julio Tequila, Gran Marnier Margarita. Sweet and Sour is too tangy and is way too much. It really does an injustice to the drink overall. 4/10.

Texican Cafe
Texican Top shelf house margarita with Patron. More like expensive Limeade. I can't even tell if there is tequila in it. Very watered down. Do they know what triple sec is? Put a cherry in it and it can pass for a Sonic Cherry Limeade. This is supposed to be Top Shelf? Maybe it is just a bad or new bartender. Anyway 1/10 Lowest rating ever.

Cadillac Margarita: Herradura Añejo Tequila, Gran Gala, splash of orange juice, and sweet n sour. Sweet n Spiderman too stale, Herradura tequila is not that great, +1, on the amount of tequila though., orange juice is not necessary. 5/10, wpuld have been a 4 but extra tequila helped.
Mesa Rosa
House Mexican Martini: El Jimador Blanco, 100% Agave Tequila, Gran Gala, and apparently the rest is a secret. Not bad, rivals my own Mexican Martinis. Jimador tequila is better than I thought, Just a bit too much orange liqueur though. Could have been a 9. 8/10

Y.O. Rita Pura Vida Silver Tequila, DeKuyper Cactus Juice Liqueur, Tres Agave Nectar, Fresh Lime Juice and chili salted rim. First sip did not like. Worked my way around the chili salt, and the rest was pretty good. Sweet and Sour was pretty good. Good Tequila, agave nectar gives it a unique sweetness, overall 7/10.

Cadillac Rita. House Margarita, with Sauza Gold and DeKuyper orange liqueur. Sweetness is good with the sweet and sour mix. Sauza Gold is above average. Overall 7/10.
Gringo's (LaPorte)
It is the House Margarita, with Tres Generaciones Tequila mixed in. It's served in a pretty small glass. The foundation is OK. The basic House mix itself is a 5. It needs more orange liqueur for some sweetness. The 3G's can only bring it up to a 6 though, no more. Average +1.
