Margarita Ingredients

Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by rimming your glass with salt. To do this, run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass to moisten it, then dip the rim into a small plate of salt until coated. This adds flavor and a decorative touch.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, 1 oz of orange liqueur, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Add ice to the shaker to chill the mixture.

  3. 3

    Shake the Cocktail

    Securely put the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice or serve straight up (without ice) in the glass. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
