Margarita Preparation

1

Prepare the Glass

Begin by preparing the 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.

2

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.

3

Add Ice and Shake

Fill the shaker with ice, then secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.

4

Strain and Serve

Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice. Optionally, garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
