Steps:

Put into blender: 1 - 6 oz. can frozen limeade (Minutemaid®, we've found, has a lot of pulp) Using the same can the limeade came in as a measuring device, add a little over ½ of the can Triple Sec (60 proof). Vary as to your taste - more Triple Sec will make it sweeter; less than ½ can will make it more tart. Again, using the limeade can, fill the can slightly less than half full with gold tequila and pour into the blender. This measure can also be adjusted for your taste (or tolerance for alcohol). (If the 6 oz. can of limeade is not available, you can use the 12 oz. one and just pour up half of the blended limeade, tequila and Triple Sec mixture (before the ice is added) for use in a later batch. If that use is to be at a later date, just pour it up into an appropriate sized container and put it in the freezer.) Blend with enough ice to make 40 oz. If you like salt in your margaritas, but don't like the salt shower in your beard or upon your chest/bosom you can add the salt directly into the blender. The salt tempers the harshness of the tequila and the sourness of the lime. The 6 oz. can (or half the 12 oz. can) makes cocktails for 4 or servings for 2 if you have it with a lot of nachos - and don't plan on driving the rest of the evening!
