| A good margarita depends on the quality of its ingredients; always use the best tequila you can |
| find. Margaritas can be made in a blender or served on the rocks, according to taste. Use a citrus |
| reamer, a small, fluted cylindrical wooden tool, to extract every last drop of juice from the limes. |
| 1 lime, cut into 6 wedges |
| 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice |
| 2 to 4 tablespoons Lime Simple Syrup |
| 1. To salt-rim the glasses, rub a cut lime around the rim of each glass. Fill a saucer with salt, and |
| dip each glass, upside down, into the salt. Set aside. |
| 2. Fill a blender jar three-quarters full of ice cubes. Pour tequila, Cointreau, Grand Marnier, lime |
| juice, and simple syrup over the ice. Begin blending on low, then increase the speed to high, until |
| the ice is very finely chopped and the mixture is frothy. Taste for sweetness, adding more simple |
| syrup if necessary. Blend a few seconds more, and pour into the salt-rimmed glasses. Serve |
