Chico's Margaritas

I got this recipe from some good friends, whose last name is Chico. Thus, Chico's Margaritas. Some of the ingredients may be unconventional compared to what you normally encounter in a margarita recipe, but the taste is quite similar to what I’ve had at my favorite Mexican restaurant.

Let’s take a look at today’s players:


Light Beer, Triple Sec, Tequilla, and Limeade Concentrate




Pour one 12 ounce can of thawed limeade into a pitcher.




Next add ½ can (using the limeade can) or 6 ounces of Tequila.




Then add ½ can or 6 ounces of Triple Sec.




Pour in one can or 12 ounces of water.




Last pour in that 12 ounce can of light beer. It’s been tried with regular beer and the consensus is that light beer works best.




Mix all ingredients in pitcher. Fill glass with ice.




Now pour that delicious concoction into the glass.




Serve with salsa and chips and enjoy. (My favorite CHIP was Ponch, just sayin’.)




Chico’s Margaritas

12 oz. Can of thawed limeade concentrate
6 oz. Tequila
6 oz. Triple Sec
12 oz. water
12 oz. Can of light beer

Combine the above ingredients in a pitcher. Serve over ice.

Note: My nickname for tequila is ‘ta-kill-ya’, so drink (as with all alcoholic beverages) in moderation. Enjoy, but please, don’t ever drink and drive; ‘cause if I find out you did, I’ll be mad at you.
