1
Prepare the Glass
Start by rimming the glass with salt. To do this, run a lime wedge around the rim of a chilled glass, then dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, lime juice, triple sec, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.
3
Shake the Cocktail
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. If you prefer a straight-up margarita, you can skip the ice in the glass.
5
Garnish
Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass to enhance presentation and flavor.
