Top Shelf Margarita with tequila specially made for Casa Garcia's. A little too much lime in this one. Goes down smooth with the so called special tequila. Doesn't hurt that there's extra tequila in it. Extra tequila, extra point. 6/10.

Fuzzy's Taco Shop
Mexican Martini at Fuzzy's. They don't have 1800 Silver, (best tequila for Mexican Martinis), so had to settle for Patrőn. Not a bad substitute. Not enough olive taste, and I believe olive juice should be minimal. Not enough simple syrup to work in conjunction with lime juice. The bartender definitely added an extra kick of tequila, but it only brings it up to a 4/10. (I always add an extra point for extra tequila)

Tequila Bar and Grill
Called their signature Aranda's style margarita. Real Gusto Tequila, whatever that isl, fresh lime juice, Grand Marnier, agave nectar, fresh grapefruit juice, lime juice, and orange juice with fruit wedges.
Well, it's so big, it has to be served in a bowl. Nice. Too sweet though, and the tequila is not really ,"Gusto", seems harsh. It is overpowered by grapefruit juice and the agave nectar. Overall a 5/10. Would have been a 4, but like I always say,"Put more than enough tequila in it, and you get an extra point."

Texas Land and Cattle
Grand Gold Margarita, José Cuervo Gold Tequila, with Grand Marnier. Simple, yet effective. Good sweet sour mix and good mix of the orange liqueur. Definitely better than I thought it would be. 8/10 and at a good price of $7.50.

Cotton Patch
Simple Margarita with Patron on the rocks. Simple Margarita is definitely is the right name for this. Basically a bad limeade with a shot of Patron. Patron is good though 3/10

Longhorn Steakhouse
Patron Platinum margarita, with Patron Silver Tequila, orange liqueur, organic agave nectar. Watered down, not enough orange liqueur, lime mix is either bad or limes are bad. Not enough tequila to qualify as a real margarita. I have had worse, but not much. 2/10

Barcena's
House Margarita. Same subpar tequila as with Mexican Martini from previous post. Same bad sweet sours mix, this time too much sugar. Way too sweet and not enough lime juice. Don't even get a hint of orange liqueur from it. Bad Deal. Still not the worst. 2/10
Barcena's
Mexican Martini, tequila is subpar, sweet sour mix too tangy with a stale taste. Not enough simple syrup and no olive taste or olives for that matter. 2/10.
