Funny margarita story -- we were at our local pub for dinner last night and I ordered a margarita. Our server asked what tequila I wanted, and I told him that I don't know brands, but would prefer something on the smokier side but not mezcal. And I wanted my margarita up and with salt. The server, who we know well, tells me he'll ask the bartender, who is the owner and who we also know well, to recommend a tequila. He brings my drink and I take one sip of it and it was too strong for me, so I ask him to take it back to the bar and ask for more lime and syrup. Anyway, while they're fixing it I tell Mr. CE that it was so strong I can still feel it burning in my stomach. Our server brings my drink back and tells me that apparently what the owner originally poured was a shaken tequila, served up with ice. LOL...not sure where the miscommunication came from! (Does anyone actually order tequila with salt and lime to sip?) The remade margarita was excellent!
