1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by preparing your glass. Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of your glass. Dip the rim into salt to coat it lightly. This adds flavor and complements the drink.
2
Mix the 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 to chill the mixture.
3
Shake It Up
Secure the lid on the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Using a strainer, pour the margarita mixture into your prepared glass filled with ice. If you prefer, you can also serve it straight up without ice.
5
Garnish
Garnish your margarita with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for an added touch of flavor and presentation.
