Cocktails with tequila: Margarita


Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz tequila
1/2 oz triple sec
1 oz lime juice
salt

Directions:
Rum the rim of a cocktail glass with lime juice, and dip in salt. Shake all ingredients with ice, strain into the glass, and serve.

Description:
The margarita is the most common of tequila-based cocktails, made with Triple Sec (or another orange liquor such as Cointreau) and lime juice, often served with salt on the glass rim.

In other languages, margarita is the Latin word for pearl; and Spanish for the daisy flower, which is also the name of a similar cocktail.
