Margarita – Beverages and Drinks Recipes

Recipe ingredients and directions:

I came across the following recipe quoted from a book by the originator

of the Margarita (called surprise surprise Margarita). I’ve tried it

and consider it far far far far superior to ANY margarita using Triple

Sec or (God forbid), Margarita Mix. And, believe it or not it’s very

simple.

Salt the rim of a glass and fill with crushed ice. Pour into a cocktail

shaker two oz premium tequila, and one oz Cointreau. Follow with the

freshly squeezed juice of two limes and one lemon. Add a dash of salt

(to taste). Mix and pour over crushed ice.

Substitutions can be used – Pure lime juice and pure lemon juice, but

it’s not as fresh that way.
