Recently, there has been a new thread inserted into the group asking for recipies for Margaritas. I posted saying that I had a copy of what the man himself considered the "perfect" one, and offered to post it. Well, here it is. Please note that this can be found in The Parrothead Handbook on page 13 - this book is available with the new boxed set (Boats, Bars, Beaches, and Ballads). Happy mixing, my fellow Parrotheads!
