Method

Preparation of Rim

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass Rim

    Choose either coarse sea salt or granulated sugar to rim the glass. Run a lime wedge around the edge of the glass to moisten it, then dip the rim into the salt or sugar to coat it evenly.

Mixing the Margarita

  1. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of El Milagro Silver or Reposado Tequila (your choice), 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz of triple sec.

  2. 3

    Shake the Mixture

    Fill the shaker with ice and secure the lid. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.

  3. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice, ensuring that the rim remains intact.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Add the Garnish

    Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for an added touch of flavor and presentation.
