1
Prepare the Glass
Start by rimming your glass with salt. To do this, take a lime wedge and rub it around the rim of the glass. Then, dip the rim into a small plate of salt to coat it evenly.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, lime juice, triple sec, simple syrup, and ice. Make sure to fill the shaker with enough ice to chill the mixture.
3
Shake Well
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Using a strainer, pour the margarita mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice if desired. Make sure to strain out any ice from the shaker.
5
Garnish
Garnish your margarita with a fresh lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
