Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Glass

Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of a chilled margarita glass. Dip the rim into salt to coat it evenly. Set aside.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, 1 oz of orange liqueur, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup.

3

Shake the Cocktail

Fill the shaker with ice and secure the lid. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to mix the ingredients thoroughly and chill the mixture.

4

Strain and Serve

Using a strainer, pour the mixture into the prepared margarita glass filled with ice. Optionally, you can serve it straight up without ice.

5

Garnish

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