The Margarita has become a staple at any bar or restaurant you’re likely to be in. We’ve put together our take on the classic marg – a cocktail consisting of tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice that is often served with salt on the rim of the glass. The margarita can be served shaken with ice (on the rocks), blended with ice (frozen margarita), or without ice (straight up).
