Margarita Ingredients

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Glass

Start by rimming your glass with salt. To do this, run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass, then dip the rim into a plate of salt until it is evenly coated.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, fresh lime juice, orange liqueur, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.

3

Shake

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill the mixture and combine the ingredients.

4

Strain and Serve

Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
