Method

Margarita Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Start by preparing your glass. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of a chilled glass, then dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat the edge. Set the glass aside.

  2. 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. Fill the shaker with ice.

  3. 3

    Shake the Mixture

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice, or serve it straight up without ice if preferred.

  5. 5

    Garnish

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