I’m a sucker for a good margarita – this is a great margarita! The key limes give it a very distinctive flavor. If you don’t have key limes available, an acceptable substitute is Nellie & Joe’s Famous Key West Lime Juice.

Recipe Notes
I like Grand Marnier, but some prefer Cointreau or Triple Sec.
You can float another shot of Grand Marnier on top after pouring into glass and you've got a Cadillac.
