Ingredients

  • 3 oz white wine
  • 1.5 oz tequila
  •  1 oz fresh lime juice
  • 0.5 oz agave syrup or simple syrup
  • 0.5 oz triple sec or orange liqueur
  • Ice
  • Salt for rimming the glass (optional)
  • Lime wedge for garnish

Instructions

  • Rim the Glass (Optional): For a touch of authenticity, run a lime wedge around the rim of your cocktail glass and dip it into sea salt. This step is optional but adds a classic margarita flair.
  • Mix the Ingredients: In a cocktail shaker, combine the white wine, tequila, fresh lime juice, agave syrup, and triple sec. This blend creates the foundation of your refreshing margarita.
  • Shake: Fill the shaker with ice and shake well until the mixture is nicely chilled. Shaking not only cools the drink but also ensures that all the flavors meld together beautifully.
  • Serve it: Fill the glass with ice and then strain the mixture into it. The ice will keep your cocktail cold and slightly dilute it to perfect balance.
  • Garnish: Finish with a lime wedge or wheel for a bit of extra flair and a hint of citrus aroma.
