My wife’s favorite cocktail, the Margarita is one I had to perfect. The secret is picking not one, but two sweetening agents.
2 oz tequila blanco
3/4 oz simple syrup
1/4 oz triple sec
1 oz lime juice
Pour ingredients into shaker filled with ice
Shake for 20 seconds until chilled
Strain into rocks glass (or margarita glass) with crushed ice
Garnish with lime wedge (salting rim optional)
