Ingredients:

1/3 cup fresh lemon juice

1 cup white Tequila

1/3 cup Triple Sec
Coarse salt for coating the rims of the glasses

Dip the rims of 4 glasses in the lemon juice and put the glasses in the freezer. In a sealable bottle or shaker combine the Tequila, the Triple Sec, the remaining lemon juice, and about 2 cups crushed ice, seal the bottle, and shake the Margarita vigorously until it is very cold and the ice is almost melted. Remove the glasses from the freezer, dip the rims in the salt, shaking off the excess, and fill the glasses with ice cubes. Divide the Margaritas among the glasses.

Not exactly cooking, I know, but just a little something to put a smile on your face, if you happen to take up a friends offer of Tequila!
