Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    If you want a salted rim, take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of your glass. Then dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.

  3. 3

    Shake

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. Optionally, serve without ice for a straight-up margarita.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a lime wedge placed on the rim of the glass.
