Oh boy, I've seen those and had some margs made in one of those. But real
Margs, they don't even need ice...Upsidedown Margs are easiest... You tilt
back your head, over the bar, open your mouth and the bartender pours in
some tequila, some Triplesec and you swallow... Then chew some
lime....There...DONE!
....and....silent, uses no gas, you can make em with a dead battery even.
A few of those and that steenkin generator won't bother you.
