THE PERFECT MARGARITA

Mastering the margarita requires a certain amount of practice, but once you dial-in your perfect ratio, it's a really easy cocktail to replicate. The classic recipe is 3 parts tequila, 2 parts triple sec, and 1 part freshly squeezed lime juice, and you should probably start off pretty close to that, but my personal favorite proportions are 4-3-2.

PERFECT AGAVE MARGARITA

Much research has caused me to determine that most Americans have been led down the 'preverbal' path in the ingredients of a great margarita. We have grown to love lime aid with some added tequila as what we know as a margarita. Hopefully this recipe will help to change that. But, as I always say--to each his/her own. Some will...

Steps:

  • 1. In a mixing glass or mason jar add all ingredients except the salt and lime garnish.
  • 2. Mix well with a spoon or cover the jar and shake very gently.
  • 3. To salt the rim of your glass (optional) drag a cut lime around the rim and then gently dip the rim in a saucer filled with fluer de sel so that the salt sticks to the rim. Fill the glass to the top with ice. Add cocktail mixture to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake until well chilled. About 30 seconds.
  • 4. Strain contents of shaker over the ice in the glass and garnish with slice of lime.
  • 5. Enjoy -- repeat.

2 oz silver or reposado 100% agave tequila
1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice (not bottled)
1/2 oz agave nectar (adjust up/down for sweetness)
1 oz fresh cool water
1 slice lime for garnish (optional)
1 tsp course salt for rim (optional)

PERFECT BLUE AGAVE MARGARITA

A very simple and refreshing margarita made with silver tequila, fresh limes and blue agave nectar. Blue agave nectar is a very light and natural sweetener made from the blue agave plant. You can find it at your supermarket (Whole Foods/Sprouts) or online (Amazon). No need for additional sweeteners, triple sec or anything else. Just pure and simple and very smooth. My wife, who hates margaritas on the rocks, loves this mix.
