Depends on the size of the margarita

I think it's usual 1.5 total. 1 of tequila and .5 of an orange liqueur.

2 to 1 ratio mixer to alcohol

1.5 ounces if it's on the rocks.
None if it's frozen.

About 1/2 a bottle.

At a restaurant? Very little. Drinks like this are typically a lot of mixer and very little low cost alcohol.

At home, others have it right that an ounce and a half or so would be pretty standard.

My go-to recipe is 2oz tequila and 1oz triple sec. So that’s 2 standard drinks.

Anyone who orders a frozen margarita doesn't actually drink. So, yeah, none.

You've obviously never been to Cactus Cantina, then. Cause you can get wrecked on those frozen pitchers...
