There are many ways to get an Apple Margarita and this is my new favorite (I previously had another which received negative reviews and caused me to play with the drink). I'm not the biggest fan of frozen Margaritas and prefer this one shaken and on the rocks, but the option is there to toss the ingredients into a blender with a cup of ice.
I have also cut the Apple Pucker from that used in other recipes and made up for it with apple juice, I think this has a nicer balance but still gives that Pucker punch and great green color.
