Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Rim the edge of a rocks glass with salt. To do this, rub a lime wedge around the rim and then dip it into a plate of salt to coat the edge.

  2. 2

    Mix the Margarita

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the Milagro Blanco Tequila, fresh lime juice, and fresh orange juice. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

  3. 3

    Strain the Margarita

    Strain the cocktail mixture into the prepared rocks glass filled with ice, leaving some space at the top for the beer.

Tipping the Beer

  1. 4

    Prepare the Modelo Especial

    Open the can of Modelo Especial and carefully pour out a small amount (about 1-2 oz) to create space for the rim of the glass.

  2. 5

    Combine the Margarita and Beer

    With the glass filled with the Margarita, tip the can of Modelo Especial and insert it into the glass so that it is resting on the rim, allowing the beer to flow into the Margarita.

Garnishing

  1. 6

    Add Garnishes

    Garnish the drink with a lime wedge and an orange slice on the rim of the glass for a vibrant presentation.
