MARGARITA ON THE ROCKS

A successful and upscale Mexican cantina nearby makes the best margaritas I've ever tasted. They look, smell, and taste 'purer' than any others I've had. I always assumed they were using all top-shelf ingredients, until I found out their secret. . . lemon-lime soda! Now I'm able to re-create them at home.

1 pinch kosher salt for rimming glasses
ice cubes
½ cup silver tequila

Steps:

  • Rim 2 margarita glasses with salt if desired, and fill with ice. Pour the tequila, sweetened lime juice, triple sec, and lemon-lime soda into a shaker filled with ice, hold your hand firmly over over the top of the shaker so the top doesn't pop off from the carbonated soda, and shake vigorously.

Tips:

  • Chill your ingredients: This will help ensure your margarita is as refreshing as possible. You can chill the tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice in the freezer for at least 30 minutes before mixing. You can also chill your glasses in the freezer for a few minutes before serving.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice will give your margarita the best flavor. If you don't have fresh limes on hand, you can use bottled lime juice, but it won't be as good.
  • Don't over-shake your margarita: Over-shaking will dilute the margarita and make it watery. Shake your margarita just until the ingredients are combined, about 10 seconds.
  • Serve your margarita with a lime wedge and salt: This is the classic way to serve a margarita, and it's a great way to add a bit of extra flavor and refreshment.

Conclusion:

The margarita is a classic cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With these tips, you can make the perfect margarita at home. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and delicious cocktail, give the margarita a try!
