Just a touch too tart for me. I added a bit more Midori, and then it was perfect- just like I get at the local Mexican place. Made for ZWT8.

I really enjoyed the midori in this margarita. It was delightful. It still tasted like a margarita without being too sweet (as so many midori drinks can be). I kept the lime juice at the quantity listed, and I thought it worked well for this drink. If you like margaritas, you're going to love this cocktail! Thanks for sharing your recipe, lazyme. Made for ZWT8 - Mexico.

This was a little too tart for me. I think next time I'll cut back on the lime juice like a couple other reviewers mentioned. Otherwise yummy margarita!
