Margarita

 | 1 min

I just bought some more tequila so I finally got to make one of my favourite drinks.

Margarita Cocktail

Ingredients:

  • 3 parts tequila (I used El Jimador Reposado)
  • 2 parts triple sec (I used Cointreau)
  • 1 part lime juice or sour mix (I used fresh lime juice)

Instructions:

Shake with ice and strain into a margarita glass or cocktail glass rimmed with ice and garnish with a lime wedge/wheel.

What I made is pretty similar to what you get at the Mexican Cafe (or almost any other bar) except that they normally use sour mix instead of lime juice. Sour mix is lime or lemon juice (or both) sweetened with sugar, and is sometimes called sweet-and-sour mix. It makes the drink a lot sweeter, but I think I actually prefer it with just plain lime juice.
