THE PERFECT MARGARITA
Mastering the margarita requires a certain amount of practice, but once you dial-in your perfect ratio, it's a really easy cocktail to replicate. The classic recipe is 3 parts tequila, 2 parts triple sec, and 1 part freshly squeezed lime juice, and you should probably start off pretty close to that, but my personal favorite proportions are 4-3-2.

Steps:
- Moisten the rim of a glass with a lime wedge. Sprinkle salt onto a plate. Lightly dip the moistened rim into the salt. Place a large ice cube in the glass and freeze the prepared glass until ready to serve.
- Fill a cocktail shaker with fresh ice. Add tequila, triple sec, and lime juice. Cover and shake vigorously until outside of the shaker has frosted. Strain into the prepared glass and garnish with a slice of lime.

THE BEST EASY MARGARITA
I've had friends say that they can't tell the difference between this and a real margarita! I made up this recipe myself one day when I was preparing for camping at a music festival. I needed lots of booze, preferably refreshing. And this is the awesome result. I think you could make this into a frozen margarita by putting it in the freezer then blending it, but I like them much more on ice. **Note** This is VERY STRONG. If you want to make it less strong, add another 1/2 qt limeade. Any more diminishes the flavor. I recommend using Newman's Own Limeade. Also, I don't recommend using crappy tequila, use only what you would drink straight.
