Margarita Ingredients

Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of your glass to moisten it. Then, dip the rim into a small plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, fresh lime juice, orange liqueur, and simple syrup. Add a handful of ice to the shaker.

  3. 3

    Shake It Up

    Secure the lid on the shaker 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. If you prefer it on the rocks, you can add ice to the glass before pouring.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy!
