Equipment
Ingredients
- 1½ ounces Vodka
- 1 ounce Orange Liqueur
- 2 ounces Lime Juice
- 1 tablespoon Agave or simple syrup
- Coarse Salt for salting the glass rim
Instructions
- Coat the glass rim. Ready the glass by running a wedge of lime along the rim of the glass, using the lime you've just squeezed.
- Salt the rim. Pour the coarse salt onto a flat surface, such as a plate. Dip the rim of the lime-coated glass into the salt, and gently wiggle it back and forth while applying light pressure to ensure the salt sticks.
- Shake it. Add ice cubes into your cocktail shaker, then pour in the vodka, fresh lime juice, orange liqueur or triple sec, and agave syrup. Shake the ingredients well to ensure that they are fully combined and chilled.
- Strain it into the glass. Once you've prepared the glass by rimming it with salt and adding a lime wedge, add some ice to the glass. Then, strain the shaken vodka margarita into the glass and garnish with another fresh lime wedge, if desired.
Notes
- Shaking it is a must. Please don’t skip the shaking step, as it helps to mix the ingredients and create a frothy texture that makes the drink more enjoyable.
- Don’t forget the salt rim: The salt rim is a classic element of a margarita that enhances the flavor of the cocktail and it’s key in the version. Make sure to rim your glasses with salt by rubbing a lime wedge around the edge and then dipping it in salt.
- Adjust the sweetness and tartness: Everyone has different preferences when it comes to the sweetness and tartness of a margarita. Use agave nectar or try an alternative simple syrup like Demerara Syrup to sweeten the cocktail to your taste, and adjust the lime juice to make it more or less tart.
