Ingredients
  

  • 3 oz 100% pure Agave Tequila Don Julio Blanco is our fav
  • 2 oz orange liqueur Cointreau is our fav
  • 2 oz lime juice freshly squeezed is best

Instructions
 

  • Fill two cocktail glasses with ice or a molded ice ball or cube
  • Add ice to a cocktail shaker / strainer
  • Pour three ounces tequila, two ounces orange liqueur, and two ounces of lime juice into the cocktail shaker
  • Seal the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds. This gets the margarita extremely cold and crisp.
  • Strain the cocktail shaker over your iced cocktail glasses.
  • Add the garnish of your choice.
