1
Prepare the Glass
Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of a chilled glass to moisten it. Dip the rim of the glass into salt to coat the edge. Set aside.
2
Mix the Margarita
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of lime juice, and 1 oz of triple sec. Fill the shaker with 1 cup of ice cubes.
3
Shake the Ingredients
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

4
Strain into Glass
Strain the mixture from the shaker into the prepared glass filled with ice. If desired, you can serve it straight up without ice in the glass.
5
Garnish
Garnish with lime wedges on the rim of the glass.
