1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by preparing your glass. Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of your glass to moisten it.
2
Add Salt
Dip the rim of the glass into a plate of salt, ensuring it is evenly coated. Set the glass aside.
3
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, lime juice, triple sec, and ice. Make sure to fill the shaker with enough ice to chill the mixture.
4
Shake Well
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
5
Strain and Serve
Using a strainer, pour the mixture into the prepared glass. Ensure the salted rim is facing up.
6
Garnish
Garnish your margarita with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy!
