1
Prepare the Glass
Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of a chilled margarita glass. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, 1 oz of triple sec, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Add 1 cup of ice cubes to the shaker.
3
Shake
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well mixed and chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared margarita glass filled with ice, or serve it straight up if preferred.

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