1
Prepare the Glass
Start by preparing the glass. Take a lime wedge and run it along the rim of a chilled glass. Then, dip the rim of the glass into a plate of salt to coat it evenly.
2
Combine Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of lime juice, and 1 oz of triple sec. Add 1 cup of ice to the shaker.
3
Shake the Mixture
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds. This will chill the mixture and blend the flavors.
4
Strain and Serve
Strain the cocktail mixture into the prepared glass. Ensure that no ice gets into the glass.
5
Garnish
Garnish the margarita with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for added flavor and presentation.
