1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by rimming your glass with salt. To do this, take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of the glass. Then, dip the rim into a small plate of salt, coating it evenly. Set the glass aside.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, 1 oz of triple sec, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.
3
Shake
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Using a strainer, pour the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. If you prefer your margarita straight up, strain it into the salted glass without ice.
5
Garnish
Garnish your margarita with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
