Consider going lighter on the Triple sec if you taste it's too sweet.

This recipe will kick your ass if you don't let it sit on ice and water down for about an hour. If you're in a hurry, blend half, and add it back to the pitcher. Either way, this Margarita will kick your ass. This is a double recipe. If you halve the recipe, still use both lime and lemon; the lemon mellows out the lime. Pura Vida!
