You’ll need a cocktail shaker for this Applebee's Perfect Patron margarita recipe. If you want to serve it up the same way as in the restaurant you need a small martini glass. You’ll also need some simple syrup to sweeten the drink. You can buy it or make your own by mixing two parts sugar to one part boiling water. You’ll have some leftover ingredients for an additional serving if you like. And once you taste this, you’ll like.

Took a chance but I love Applebees Perfect Margarita and I can say after tasting this, and the bartender being friendly this is the recipe or very very close to it.

This is The best version of Applebees Margaritas. I have made them now 5 x and we love them. I know this is the correct recipe shhhh because I asked the bartender. They ask $9.00 for this drink and I can see why. Expensive booze. But yum
