Customer Reviews

Good drink book, but not for margaritas.

The book is a cute little mixer recipe book, it has nice glossy pages, and beautiful photos but the title might indicate you to believe there are lots of margarita recipes, there are only 3. It's really more about tequila than margaritas per se. There are recipes for Tequila Sunrise, Nacionalista, Paloma, Martini, Mojito, Colada, Shooters, Limonada but all made with tequila. There are nice full color pictures of the drinks in the appropriate stemware. In the back are several recipes for food nibblers, guacamole, salsa, chili con queso, fajitas, etc. all with pictures and clear instructions. We made the quacamole and it was delicious. Would highly recommend just don't expect all margarita recipes.

Lots of YUMMY tequila recipes!

This is not simply a margarita recipe book, it has tons of really delicious cocktails to make with tequila. Each recipe recommends a particular type of tequila (anejo, silver, reposado, etc) and starts with a little story about the cocktail, when is best to try it, where it originated from, etc. The recipes use fresh, sometimes exotic ingredients. It is a beautiful little book and would be a great gift with a very nice bottle of tequila. We have made several of the recipes and wow! A great book!
