I cannot fathom why/how it took this long, but I made my first ever-margarita on the rocks yesterday and it was nothing short of amazing. Turns out you don’t need a well-trained bartender at a Mexican restaurant somewhere in the state of Texas to do the drink justice, you just need:
- 3 oz. tequila
- 2 oz. freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 oz. simple syrup
- 1 tsp. Cointreau
Add to a cocktail shaker filled with ice, shake about 30 seconds, pour into a kosher-salt rimmed glass, take a sip and prepare to swoon (from the simple yumminess, swooning from booziness may occur if you choose to repeat excessively…).
