1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by preparing your glass. Run a lime wedge around the rim of a chilled glass, then dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of lime juice, and 1 oz of triple sec. Make sure to use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best flavor.
3
Add Ice
Add 1 cup of ice cubes to the shaker, filling it about halfway.
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
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass, ensuring no ice particles make it into the drink.
6
Garnish
Finally, garnish your margarita with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy!
