I squeeze fresh lime and mix in about 1/3 to 1/2 by volume fresh squeezed OJ.
2 Part juice
1 Part really good tequila (I use Casadores Repsado)
1 Part Cointreau
Put in a shaker full of ice and shake until the outside frosts.

Normal: Put in a martini glass rimed with coarse salt
Lighter: Fill martini glass with crushed ice an pour the magarita over the ice

Edit: Use Mexican limes, if you can find them, and you can cut back some of the OJ.

You left out the rest of the recipe...
1. Give the juice to the kids
2. Give the Cointreau to your wife
3. Sip the Casadores
4. save the ice for the hangover
