Margarita Ingredients

Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

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

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 1 oz of triple sec (or Cointreau).

  3. 3

    Shake

    Add about 1 cup of ice cubes to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice or serve straight up without ice if preferred. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
