Margarita. © Ryan Schierling |
Fresh lime - cut in wedges
Kosher salt - (this should be a pantry staple anyway)
Tequila - go with what you like or can afford, either gold or silver. Sauza seems to be a good starting choice for mixed drinks.
Limeade - Simply Limeade and Odwalla "Summertime Lime" are both very good and are sweetened with real sugar!
Wet the rim of the glass with a slice of lime.
Turn the glass upside-down onto the plate of salt to get that delicious salted rim.
Fill the glass with ice.
Squeeze a wedge of fresh lime into the glass.
Pour a shot of tequila over the ice.
Throw in a fresh slice of lime and fill the rest of the glass with limeade.
Hooray for these margaritas! They are just perfect.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Megan! Some might want to slap my hand for the technical omission of triple sec, but I think I can live with that. :)
