While recently on vacation in Mexico, I wanted to whip up some tasty margaritas, with limited supplies on hand. What follows is the simplest margarita recipe I can think of! You will need:

  • tequila
  • orange liqueur such at Cointreau or Controy
  • limes and a way to juice them (a fork works)
  • glass with ice
  • mixing implement
  • kosher salt (optional)

Step 1: Mix It Up!

If you have kosher salt available, wet and dip the rim of the glass in salt first. In your glass of ice, combine:

  • 2 parts tequila
  • 1 part orange liqueur
  • 1 part lime juice

Mix it up with a spoon, or the same fork you used to juice the limes. Adjust ratios to your taste. Enjoy!!
