Classic Margarita Recipe
Report
The classic margarita is easy to make with tequila, triple sec and lime juice. It's also easy to remember with a 2:1:1 ratio. Watch the video below to see how I make it in my kitchen!

Instructions
- Salt the glass. If you'd like a salt-rimmed glass, slice a lime into quarters and rub one of the quarters along the rim of a glass. Spread margarita salt onto a small plate and turn the glass upside down into the salt. The salt should stick to the rim.
- Mix it together. To make the margarita, add the tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice to a cocktail shaker with ice. Give it a few shakes. Alternatively, you can stir all of the ingredients together in a glass.
- Serve. Add ice to your glass, then pour the margarita into the glass. Garnish with lime wedges.

Notes
- Make sure to use fresh limes for the lime juice and not bottled lime juice. The flavor difference is huge.
- If you're making a large batch and serving margaritas outdoors, I recommend this break resistant pitcher (and it's big!).
