    How to Make Classic Lime Margarita

    1. Prep Glass

    If desired, slide a lime wedge around the rim of a highball or footed glass and dip in salt to coat. Set aside.

    2. Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, pour in 2 ounces of blanco tequila and the freshly squeezed juice of one whole lime.

    3. Add Triple Sec

    Measure and add 1/2 ounce of triple sec to the shaker.

    4. Shake and Serve

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously until the mixture is well combined. Strain the margarita into your prepared glass, with or without the ice, according to preference. Finish with a lime wedge on the rim or dropped into the glass.
