The Cocktail’s Evolution
There is little doubt that a classic margarita includes tequila, a sweetener, lime juice and a salted rim glass. Variations throughout history have used multiple orange liqueurs (cointreau, triple sec, etc.) or orange juice. Some use simple syrup and some use agave syrup. People often have a strict preference on salt or no salt and Tajin is often used in place of traditional salt (this is never a bad idea). The next most commonly debated preference is blended or on the rocks. Again, we will take either, as long as the ratio of ingredients is right!
