Blended Option

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

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

  2. 2

    Mix the Cocktail

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, triple sec, and fresh lime juice. If making a blended margarita, add the ice to the shaker.

Serving

  1. 3

    Shake or Blend

    If using a shaker, fill it with ice and shake the mixture vigorously for about 15 seconds. For a blended margarita, blend the mixture on high until smooth.

  2. 4

    Pour and Garnish

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice (if served on the rocks) or pour directly into the salted rim glass (if blended). Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
