Margarita Ingredients

Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

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

  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. Fill the shaker with ice cubes.

  3. 3

    Shake the Cocktail

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

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Fill the prepared glass with fresh ice cubes and strain the margarita mixture into the glass. Ensure it's poured evenly over the ice.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish your margarita with the lime wedge on the rim of the glass for added flavor and presentation.
