If you've only ever had the slushy kind of Margarita made with a purchased mix, you're in for a treat. Classic Margaritas are quick to make and nothing's better with a spicy Mexican meal.
Ingredients
- 1 lime, cut crosswise into 5 slices
- coarse salt
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1/2 cup premium tequila
- 1/4 cup triple sec or other orange liqueur
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Preparation
- Place 3 lime slices in single layer on small plate. Pour enough salt on another small plate to reach depth of 1/4 inch. Lightly press rims of 2 Margarita glasses onto lime slices, twisting to extract juices and coat rims. Dip moistened rims into salt to coat lightly.
- Combine ice cubes, tequila, triple sec, and lime juice in cocktail shaker. Shake until outside of shaker becomes frosty. Strain mixture into prepared glasses. Garnish rims with 2 remaining lime slices and serve immediately.
