Not at all what I was hoping for. No way you get 4 servings out of that, not worth the 24 hour wait.

These are so good and pack a powerful punch. I doubled the recipe, and we thought they were a little sour, so we added a can of coors light. I know it sounds weird, but it calms the tartness. The pulp and zest floats to the top and has kind of a weird texture so we strained them. Like earlier reviewers, we didn't let the syrup sit for 24 hours and they still turned out great.

Great ratio of ingredients in a fresh lime juice margarita...so much better than limeade! We used a shaker and didn't due to 24 waiting game and they had a nice smooth taste. Also, followed the others suggestion and cut back tequila to 3/4 cup rather than 1 cup...so good! Will do these over again for sure!

Wow! These are STRONG, but very good. More of a sipping margarita. I used Patron silver, and cut it down to 3/4 of a cup, instead of a full. They were plenty strong, and we like a strong cocktail. Very enjoyable, and will make again and again. Perfect addition to a summer barbeque.

I didn't measure ammounts exactly- I think you have to go by personal taste. The drink was very good. I used some low cal sweetner instead of the sugar.

Most margarita's seem too sweet, but this one was just right. Added a little fresh OJ to cut the lime zest just a bit. This was also good in the blender as a frozen.

Love this recipe!! I don't like the sugary mixes that are sold in stores. Made these with Patron. Becareful, they sneak up on you. I also made them in a shaker instead of letting them sit over night.

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. Actually one more change---I plan on making these often, and who needs to read the word "die" every time. From now on, these fabu maggies will be entitled "Margaritas Bev". Much thanks for sharing Jeff Winett

Not terrific. It seemed to pack too much of a punch. I probably could have halved the amount of liquor and been quite happy with this recipe. Ended up squeezing more lime juice and adding water to take the edge off of it.

I absolutely loved this recipe! I won't have on the rocks any other way! I used Cointreau instead of Grand Marnier. I think a cup may be a little strong, though I use the quantities listed here to make just 2 drinks, not 4.

This IS delicious. Makes the best margarita my husband and I have ever had and we are margarita connoisseurs! :o) It is work squeezing all the limes and grating them... we make a double batch though! First sip is a doozy, then it's sooooo mellow. We also use Corazon, Patron or Cabo Wabo tequilla. The best tequilla makes all the difference! Enjoy.

My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe! I had never had a non-blended one before and my husband said it was the best margarita he'd ever had. I was expecting something harsh but this was smooth and actually kind of sweet. I picked this over the others available because it wasn't blended. I didn't have 24 hours to wait so I warmed the water, lime zest, and sugar on the stove until the sugar dissolved and added the juice off the heat. I let it set while preparing the glasses and measuring the tequila and Triple Sec (instead of Grand Marnier as called for). We didn't prefer the zest in our drinks so I strained it when adding it to the alcohol. We also used sugar instead of salt on the rims. The only thing I'm left wondering is if the recipe should be for two drinks. We made a double batch and ended up with four small sized margaritas. We'll definitely make these again...

These were good but oh boy, they are STRONG! And that is after I decreased the amount of tequila a bit. They tasted great, you could smell the liquor but not really taste it. However, making the sweet and sour was kind of a pain. Next time I'll probably just make Margaritas on the rocks (also from Allrecipes). However, if you have the time and initiative, try these.
