Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by rimming your glass with salt. To do this, run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass, then dip the rim into a plate of salt until it is evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Shake it Up

    Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice, ensuring not to disrupt the salted rim.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your margarita with a lime wedge. Serve immediately and enjoy!
