David’s Margarita Recipe!

Don’t Buy a Mix. They are too sweet. Too syrupy. Too Expensive.

David’s Margarita Recipe

(Makes One Margarita)

Ingredients:

1 jigger fresh lime juice (Figure one lime per jigger of lime juice)

1 jigger Casamigos Reposada tequila (any tequila will do, this is my current favorite)

1 jigger Cointreau

Ice

Lime wedge

Tajin

Directions:

In a cocktail shaker, add ice, fresh lime juice, tequila and Cointreau 

(Quantity of ice does not matter – you just want to chill the mixture)

Shake vigorously.

Run lime wedge around rim of chilled glass and spice the rim with Tajin

(I sprinkle a layer of tajin in a small dish, then rub the rim of the glass in the tajin)

Fill the glass with ice.

Strain Margarita mixture into glass. Add lime wedge.
