Instructions

  1. Place hot water and honey or agave in a cocktail shaker and whisk vigorously to combine. 
  2. Add in the lime juice, tequila, orange liqueur, and orange juice. Shake vigorously to combine. 
  3. Fill a glass with ice. Pour the margarita on top of the ice, garnish with a lime twist or wedge, and serve at once. 

Notes

  •  
  • If you prefer a salt-rimmed glass, running the flesh of a lime wedge around the top rim of your glass. Then fill a rimmed plate or shallow bowl with salt, and dip the rim of the glass into the salt until it is covered with salt. Set aside while you make your drink.
  • If you use Grand Marnier, your margarita will have a slightly more orange hue.
