This is how I like my Margaritas, tequila-forward, with tangy citrus, a hint of balancing sweetness and a faint salty undertone.
The traditional Margarita...
I really don’t like more than a half ounce of fresh lemon or lime juice in any standard sized (3 oz) cocktail. 1.5 oz Tequila, 1 oz Cointreau, 1/2 oz Lime juice, 1/2 tsp Agave syrup… works best for me.
