What You'll Need

How to Make It

  1. 1

    Prepare the glass

    Run a lime wedge around the rim of a coupe or rocks glass. Dip the rim in coarse salt to coat. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Add ingredients

    Add tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and agave nectar to a shaker filled with ice.

  3. 3

    Shake it up

    Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until the shaker is frosty cold. This creates the signature texture.

  4. 4

    Strain and serve

    Strain into your prepared glass. Serve on the rocks or up — your preference.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Add a lime wheel on the rim. The aroma of fresh lime completes the experience.

Pro Tips

Fresh Lime Is Non-Negotiable

Never use bottled lime juice. Fresh-squeezed lime juice is the heart and soul of a great margarita.

Choose Quality Tequila

Use 100% agave blanco tequila. The better the spirit, the better the drink. Skip the well tequila.

Sweeten with Agave

Agave nectar blends seamlessly and enhances the tequila's natural sweetness better than simple syrup.

Double-Strain for Smoothness

Strain through a fine-mesh strainer after shaking to remove ice chips for a silky-smooth texture.
