![]() I made the margarita recipe earlier in the day, kept it refrigerated and brought the batch in the perfect-size Rubbermaid 1 Gallon pitcher I found at a grocery store. That’s why I put together this recipe based on what their bartender told us decades ago.īack to the Margarita bridal shower, I only needed make around 40 margaritas for this event. I thought we were privy to a secret recipe (and perhaps at the time, we were) but you can easily find many versions of the Fonterra Topolo Margarita recipe, but not to make enough for a crowd. However, I found even if you don’t use Gran Torres or the finest tequila, these margaritas are still delicious! A note about Gran Torres: I used to find it in a bottle like this but now it looks like this. The key ingredients that make Frontera Grill Margaritas extra special are fresh limes and Gran Torres Orange liquor instead of the usual Triple Sec. Then we became friends with one of the bartenders, and he shared the recipe with us for the fabulous Frontera Margaritas! He gave us a large batch recipe that had 40 limes and multiple cups of sugar, and we made it for one of our office parties. Soon the restaurant became so popular to avoid waiting in line we would often sit at the bar to order. How I Acquired The Frontera Topolo Margaritas Recipe We also discovered that besides the food being so fresh, the margaritas were amazingly delicious too. We liked this restaurant so much, we found ourselves having lunch there almost every week, and often chose it as a place to bring our clients or to get treated by salespeople. The chef who owned it (yes, this was Rick Bayless) was milling around the kitchen and his wife was there to greet and seat us. My business partner discovered “a cool and different” Mexican restaurant right around the corner from our studio. However, this was the perfect urban pioneer location for a graphic design studio. Over 30 years ago, I started a graphic design business in Chicago in a location that seemed to be way too far west of Michigan Avenue and too far North of the Loop. Based On Frontera Grill Topolo Margaritas I modified the recipe so it was easy-to-make and easy to transport to the party. I was one of the hostesses for a bridal shower and the theme was (the bride’s favorite) margaritas! So I volunteered to make my copycat version of Frontera Grill Topolo Margaritas for a crowdfrom a recipe I acquired decades ago. This recipe is perfect for a Cinco de Mayo party or anytime you want to serve margaritas for a crowd.
