HOW TO CUT LIMES FOR MARGARITAS RECIPES

Steps:

• If you like margaritas served in a glass with salt, rub the outside rims of 6glasses with a cut lime and dip each glass lightly into a plate of kosher salt.
• Combine the lime juice, lemon juice, Triple Sec, tequila, and ice in a blender and puree. Place extra ice in a cocktail shaker. Fill with margarita mix, shake well, and strain into glasses.

Steps:

• Chill The Cocktail Glass: Prep the cocktail glass by filling it with ice water, then set it aside until ready to use.
• Make The Crushed Ice: Wrap a handful of ice cubes in a clean kitchen towel or in an ice bag, and, using a rolling pin or mallet, tap on it until all the ice is broken up and crushed into pieces ranging from pea-sized to snowflake sized.
• Shake The Margarita: Combine the tequila, lime juice, agave, and orange liqueur in a cocktail shaker and fill halfway with ice. Shake well until chilled and frosty, about 15 to 20 seconds.
• Add Salt To The Rim: Right before you go to serve the drink, discard the ice water, rub the rim with the end of the lime then, if desired, dip the rim in salt, pressing to adhere. Serve The Cadillac Margarita: Strain the margarita into a rocks glass filled with crushed ice (with a salted rim, if desired). Garnish with a few slices of lime and serve.
