Margarita Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Rub the rim of a chilled cocktail glass with a lime wedge to moisten it. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat the edge evenly. Set the glass aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 1 oz of triple sec.

  3. 3

    Shake with Ice

    Fill the shaker with ice cubes (about 1 cup). Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill the mixture.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Using a strainer, pour the mixture into the prepared cocktail glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.
