Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by preparing the glass. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of your glass to moisten it, then dip the rim into salt to coat it evenly.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of triple sec, and 1 oz of fresh lime juice. Make sure to use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best flavor.

  3. 3

    Shake the Cocktail

    Add 1 cup of ice cubes to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice or serve it up in a chilled glass without ice.

  5. 5

    Garnish

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