I would consider myself a very manly drinker. Aside from beer, which I love, I like whiskey, dark rum, vodka (but not gin), and the like. I drink them mostlt straight or on the rocks, but occasionally mixed with coke or ginger ale.
I will also admit that there is a time and a place for hard cider, hard lemonade, and the other alco-pops, but margaritas I just can't take. It's not a matter of it being girly, it's a matter of me not being able to withstand any kind of triplesec and most kinds of tequila. I'll drink a glass of Lagavulin anytime, but tequila is just awful. Triplesec is worse.
Everytime my friends and I end up at a mexican restaurant and they order margaritas I envy them -- but I just can't do it!
There's a place here in the city that as long as the cops aren't hanging outside will actually sell you a Margarita to go. There's nothing like walking around downtown sipping on a frozen margarita. Oh, and its also my favorite Mexican restaraunt and they always have a baseball game on.
It's been a few years since I last visited Chuy's. I swear I don't recall flour tort enchiladas! That's so freaken lame... You might as well just go to a Taco Bell or Del Taco. Sheesh. I hope the rest of their menu isn't being "Taco/Dell/Bell-ized".
This is great guidance. Guys should not drink frozen margaritas. Salt on the rim can go either way. I don't like it, but it always has to be on the rocks.

rocks + no salt = dude
I make mine with Petron Silver and they are absolutely wonderful. I had 2 just last night.
I like all variations. And I like a lot of it.

If you're a he-man, don't drink ANYTHING through a straw...
Hey g-rat, have you been over to Chuy's off of Barton ( I think...) for some of those Mexican smoothies... Ummm. Good Tex-Mex chow too.
that'll do.

Oh man, they have the best chicken chimi's on the planet. God I miss Austin.
But I don't know why the hell they use flour tortillas for enchiladas... baffling.
Even gringo's here in So Cal know better...

Love a good margarita.
But the painkillers I'm on do NOT go well with alcohol.
