Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by rimming your glass with salt. To do this, take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of the glass. Dip the rim into a small plate with salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of agave syrup, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz of saline solution. Fill the shaker with 1 cup of ice.

  3. 3

    Shake the Cocktail

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Using a strainer, pour the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice. Optionally, you can serve it straight up without ice in the glass.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Enjoy

    Garnish your margarita with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass. Enjoy your refreshing margarita!
