Ingredients

1 12 oz can limeade concentrate - thawed
1 12 oz can lemon-lime soda (preferably Sierra Mist - not Diet - since it's made with real sugar)
1 12 oz can lime sparkling water
8 oz tequila - silver (note: NOT gold)
4 oz orange liquor - ie. Patron Citronage, Cointreau, Grand Marnier (NOT Triple Sec)
1 sliced lime
margarita salt
ice
4-6 margarita glasses

Directions

1Stir the thawed limeade concentrate, tequila, and orange liquor in a glass or plastic pitcher. Add the sparkling lime water and the lemon-lime soda; briefly stir again.
2Salt the rims of 4 to 6 glass margarita glasses (or martini glasses, or glass tumblers). Fill with ice.
3Squeeze and twist one lime slice into each glass, be sure to get the rind squeezed well (the most flavor). Place the slices in each glass.
4Pour the margarita mix over the lime and ice in each glass. Garnish with an additional lime slice if you wish. Serve and enjoy!
5* Variations: 1.) Sweeter version - use 2 cans of lemon-lime soda and omit the lime sparkling water, 2.) Less sweet version - use 2 cans of lime sparkling water and omit the lemon-lime soda, 3.) More refreshing version - use 1 can lemon-lime soda, 2 cans lime sparkling water, 12 oz tequila, 6 oz orange liquor.
