"Love at first sip! These margaritas are perfection---intensely flavored, not "icky" sweet, and very smooth. My only change will be that after the 24 hour marination, I will strain out the lime zest...." See more Actually one more change---I plan on making these often, and who needs to read the word "die" every time.
