Margarita Recipe
1.5 oz. Tequila
0.75 oz. Triple Sec
0.5 oz. Fresh lime juice
Pour all of the ingredients into a shaker half filled with ice. Next, pour the mixed liquids into a glass with a salted rim.
*Salt the rim of any glass for a margarita by rubbing the juice from a lime wedge around the entire rim and then carefully touching the rim of the glass on a layer of salt.
*To increase the quality of a margarita, increase the quality of the orange liqueur in the beverage. (i.e. Substitute Grand Marnier for Triple Sec)
There is a common misconception that by adding higher-end tequilas to a margarita will increase the quality of the flavor, this is simply not true, it is the orange liqueur that determines the taste.
