Ask The Margarita Man...
- by Austin's Margarita Man, Mike Laymon:
Question: "I'm planning a holiday party; how many margarita mixes will I need to serve about 50 guests?"
Answer: One bottle of our traditional margarita mix will make about 75-80 eight-ounce drinks after adding your liquor and water. We estimate that usually half your guests will drink the margaritas, even if you offer a choice of beer, wine or other beverages. We usually recom-mend 1 mix for every 25-30 people. So for 50 people, I would recommend at least 2 mixes. A lot of it depends on how much your guests like margaritas!
PS: Remember, you can always return unopened mixes when we pick-up your machine and receive a refund or credit (depending on how you pay).
