Razoo's Cajun Cafe

Although it looks great, this house rita is barely discernible as a margarita. Too much cane sugar and sweet and sour mix is not that great 3/10

Jack Allen's Kitchen

Sauza Commemorativo, Cointreau,olive juice and fresh lime juice are the basic ingredients in this version. I ordered it with salt.

A little too much Contreau makes it too sweet and lime juice doesn't seem so fresh. Overall 7/10

Chuy's

Don Julio Silver tequila with Grand Marnier and Agave nectar, is all the description says. Two main ingredients, Don Julio and Grand Marnier, which always go well together,  help to make this one an 8/10

Casa Padilla

Home version of Sangria Margarita with Z Gold Tequila, Charro Triple Sec, not so fresh lime juice and Madria Sangria Wine.

Gonna have to try this again with Trés Genéracíones Tequila and the Pompeii Lime Juice from H.E.B.
Should climb a couple of spots on the grade scale. For now 6/10

Casa Garcias

Casa's version of a margarita with Trés Generaciones Anéjo Tequila, Grand Marnier, fresh lime juice and some simple syrup. $9.00.

Glass not very pretty but looks don't matter if it tastes really good.

Tastes pretty good. Anejo and a shot of grand marnier always go good together, and simple syrup balances out sweet and sour and orange liqueur really well. 7/10

Serrano's

Mexican Martini Agavales Silver Premium Orange Liqueur with lemon juice, Agave Nectar and Olive Juice. $8.50

Olive Juice is too much. 5/10

Serrano's

Don Julio Margarita.

Adequate for consumption of alcohol, nothing special. House margarita with a Don Julio floater. 5/10

Baby A's

Another house margarita with a touch of coconut flavor. It was a waste of time and money, 5 of 10

By the way, none of these margaritas were strong enough to do anything to my conciousness.

Very disappointing.

Baby A's

Midori Margarita, all I know is that it's a house rita with Midori in it. Not too bad, 7 of 10

Baby A's

Purple Rita: menu says it's ingredients are as much a mystery as the Bermuda Triangle. Definitely has a grape slush taste. Ok rating of 6 of 10, but I hear that I will feel it later. We will see.

Casa Padilla

1 oz. Pepe Zavala Reposado Tequila, 1-1/2 oz. Charro Triple Sec, and 1 oz. Pompeii Lime Juice,( no real limes that were any good could be found), blend and pour. Add shot of Grand Marnier, or Grand Gala. Enjoy. 8/10

Krave Wine Bar and Bistro

Tastes like the basic margarita with olive juice. Mediocre at best. Ehh.

Krave Wine Bar and Bistro

Didn't pay attention to the Tequila and orange liqueur. Overall though 5/10. Sweet and sour mix could have been better.

Casa Garcia's

Red Sangria Margarita oh wait, I did this one already. Still an 8/10 as before.

Casa Garcia's

Told her not such a great job on the top shelf, and asked what else do you got. She said I got a white Sangria Margarita that's already mixed in the machine.(can't mess that up too much). Its just the house Margarita with White Sangria wine mixed in. Didn't know there was a white sangria, but not bad. A little too sweet wit the white wine but solid 6/10

Casa Garcia's

Bartender claims she makes a good top shelf margarita. We'll see.

Sweet and Sour mix is too stale, and doesn't seem to have enough triple sec or Gran Marnier in it. It gets one extra point for excess Tequila, but other than that it would be a 4.
I am better off with the House Margarita. 5/10

Casa Ole

Elevated Rita made with Avion Silver %100 Agave Tequila, Gray Gala and Lime mix. Plain with a little too much lime in the mix. Could use little more Gray Gala. 5 of 10

Home

Didn't make it out for margaritas on Margarita Day with family in town so dammit I made some. 1 part Campo Azul ReposadoTequila, 1 part fresh squeezed lime juice, 1 1/4 parts Charro triple sec, blended, poured and then a shot of Gran Gala ( or Grand Marnier if your rich), added. 7 of 10.
