Margarita is a classic drink recipe. There is much disagreement about its origin, but everything suggests that it originates from Mexico. One thing is certain, however, and that is that today it is one of the most loved drinks in the world, and therefore it is found in many variations and twists. An example is its little brother "Tommy's Margarita".

Margarita video recipe
The video shows how easy it is to make a Margarita. Once you have mastered the base, there are no limits to experimenting with new varieties and tastes. It is important when shaking that you use plenty of ice and shake until the outside of the shaker is cold. If you shake it for too long, you dilute the cocktail.
Our Margarita recipe
The Margarita is a classic for a reason! Originally it consisted of 3 ingredients – tequila, orange liqueur and lime juice. Agave syrup and salt rim are optional, but add sweetness and edge to the simple Mexican drink.
You should always be able to remember this cocktail recipe, as it is easy to impress at dinner parties, summer barbecues or when you need a reminder of sun and summer in the middle of winter.
Ingredients
- 5cl Tequila Blanco
- 1cl orange liqueur
- 3cl freshly pressed limejuice
- 1cl agave syrup
- salt for decoration
Course of action
- 1. Pour Tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice and agave syrup and plenty of ice into a shaker.
- 2. Shake for approx. 10 seconds or until the shaker is ice cold
- 3. Pour the liquid through a strainer into a cold cocktail glass

Rim your glass with salt
If you would like to rim your glass with salt, start by running a lime slice (the juicy part) around half of the top edge of the glass. Fill a shallow bowl with salt and dip the rim into the salt until it is covered with the desired amount of salt. Set aside.

Shake your Margarita
Always make sure you shake your Margarita. Drinks containing citrus and fruit juice are always best with a shake. Shaking with ice not only chills the drink and mixes the ingredients completely, it also introduces the tiny air bubbles that give a margarita its frothy, delicious appearance.
