THE PERFECT MARGARITA

Mastering the margarita requires a certain amount of practice, but once you dial-in your perfect ratio, it's a really easy cocktail to replicate. The classic recipe is 3 parts tequila, 2 parts triple sec, and 1 part freshly squeezed lime juice, and you should probably start off pretty close to that, but my personal favorite proportions are 4-3-2.

Categories     beverage

Time 8m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lime, halved
Kosher salt
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (5 limes)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (1 lemon)
1 cup Triple Sec
3 cups ice
1 cup white tequila

Steps:

  • If you like margaritas served in a glass with salt, rub the outside rims of six glasses with a cut lime and dip each glass lightly into a plate of kosher salt.
  • Combine the lime juice, lemon juice, Triple Sec, and ice in a blender and puree until completely blended. Add the tequila and puree for 2 seconds more. Serve over ice.
  • If you prefer frozen margaritas, halve each of the ingredients, double the ice, and blend in two batches. Serve with a cut lime.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Tequila: Opt for a 100% agave tequila, as it provides a smoother, more flavorful margarita.
  • Fresh Ingredients Matter: Use freshly squeezed lime juice and orange liqueur for the best taste. Avoid store-bought sour mix.
  • Chill Your Ingredients: Pre-chill your tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and glasses to ensure a refreshing margarita.
  • Use Crushed Ice: Crushed ice blends easier and provides a slushier texture to your margarita.
  • Rim the Glass: Add a festive touch by rimming the glass with salt or sugar before pouring the margarita.
  • Experiment with Flavors: Try different flavors like strawberry, mango, or pineapple to create unique margarita variations.
  • Use a High-Quality Blender: A good blender ensures a smooth, well-blended margarita without chunks of ice.
