Margarita Ingredients

Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by preparing your glass. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of the glass to moisten it. Dip the rim into a small plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of triple sec, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice cubes (about 1 cup).

  3. 3

    Shake

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to mix and chill the ingredients thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass over fresh ice if desired. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
