Type of Margarita Tasted: Gil's Top Shelf on the rocks
Ingredients Listed on Menu: Cavalino tequila and "original recipe"
Review: The secret to Gil's Top Shelf margarita is in the fresh ingredients, original recipe and premium tequila. This margarita has a refreshing lime taste and does not have the overly sweet mix taste some other restaurant margaritas exhibit. The owner has years of knowledge in creating margaritas and it shows with this drink.

Type of Margarita Tasted: Presidente Margarita
Ingredients Listed on Menu: Sauza Conmemorativo tequila, Presidente Brandy, Cointreau and lime juice
Review: The Presidente is Chili's signature margarita. This beverage is served to your table in a bright blue shaker you can take home for two dollars. The presentation is there and so is the taste. It's a smooth drink that benefits from the fresh ingredients. The sweetness is on the low side which is a plus.

Type of Margarita Tasted: The Golden on the rocks, The Perfect on the rocks
Ingredients Listed on Menu: The Golden - Jimador reposado, Grand Marnier & fresh lime juice, The Perfect - Herradura silver, Cointreau & fresh lime juice
Review: Pico's margarita's are extremely fresh. They must have a team of workers slaving away in the back squeezing limes all day. The perfect margarita was the better of the two tasted. This version was smooth and the fresh lime juice was a plus. The menu states that they hold the record for the world's largest margarita. That is no longer true but was quite impressive at the time.

Type of Margarita Tasted: Premium Margarita on the rocks
Ingredients Listed on Menu: Cavalino Blanco Tequila
Review: The margarita menu at Pico de Gallo's is not too complex ... frozen, on the rocks or premium. Their premium margaritas are made with Cavalino Blanco tequila which is exceptionally smooth. The tequila is what gives this margarita a balanced taste.

Type of Margarita Tasted: Sylvia's Ultra Premium Margarita & premium margarita on the rocks with salt
Ingredients Listed on Menu: Cavalino Blanco Tequila, Cavalino Reposado Tequila, Sylvia's Super Premium Margarita - El Tesoro de Don Felipe Tequila and Grand Gala
Review: The atmosphere at Sylvia's Enchilada Kitchen is perfect for enjoying a margarita. Overall the margaritas are impressive as well. The drinks we ordered specifically with the Cavalino brand tequila came out great. We were able to taste the necessary flavor of the tequila while the other ingredients balanced out the margarita perfectly. The one disappointment was the the Sylvia's Ultra Premium margarita, the drink tasted more like tequila on ice than a margarita. The presence of anything sweet or sour were definitely missing.
