Honestly, this drink is not all that different than a margarita. In fact, I bet most people would not be able to distinguish the difference. Basically, you substitute simple syrup for triple sec. Still tasty, though. Don't get me wrong.
I found the original recipe to be too sweet so I cut down on the simple syrup. I also increased the tequila because I like to taste it. I promise, this drink will serve you well.
Ingredients
- 3 oz tequila
- 1 oz simple syrup
- 1 lime
- 1 lime wedge for garnish
Directions
Wet the top of a fancy highball-size glass using a lime. Dip the rim in kosher salt. Fill the glass with ice. Set aside.
Combine tequila, simple syrup, and the juice of 1 lime in a shaker filled with ice. Shake. Shake. Shake. Strain the liquid into your fancy glass.
Add a lime wedge or other accoutrement. Enjoy immediately.
