Margarita Ingredients

Method

Preparation

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 plate of salt to coat the edge evenly. Set the glass aside.

2

Mix Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of Cointreau, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Add ice cubes to the shaker until it is about two-thirds full.

3

Shake

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is frosty.

4

Strain and Serve

Using a strainer, pour the mixture into the prepared glass, filled with fresh ice if desired. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
