I, too, think the porportions are wrong in the recipe. My mom, who lived in south Texas for years, used the recipe on the back of the Controy bottle ~ that's the Mexican orange liquor she mentioned and it is very good. Unfortunately they don't export it. That recipe calls for 2 parts tequilia, 2 parts orange liquor (I often split that between Controy and Grand Marnier for a real treat and 1 part lime. The sparkling water would make it less potent if drinking it on the rocks, but it makes a great frozen margarita without adding the seltzer. And if you want a martini~type drink, it also makes a fabulous straight-up margarita without the seltzer.

I, too, watched this tv show but stepped out of the room when Stephanie did this. Rest assured the proportions as listed in this recipe are WRONG! Unfortunately, I would love to have a pitcher recipe with good proportions,. However, the tip that I gleaned was to use club soda. I might try a lemon or orange LeCroix carbonated water with mine - instead of some cheap sweet and sour mix. Or perhaps these margaritas need a little simple syrup as listed in a review below?

I liked the way Stephanie introduced the recipe--she said something along the lines of how important the proportions for this recipe were--with a look that said, "you put in however much of each you want!" Great show!
