Notes

Using freshly squeezed lime juice is critical for a vibrant and authentic margarita flavor.
You may substitute Cointreau with Grand Marnier or triple sec, but Cointreau delivers the best balance of sweetness and orange flavor.
Adjust agave syrup to taste for sweetness; some prefer less for a tarter drink.
Serve with salted rims or plain glasses depending on preference.
For a slightly different flavor, add a splash of freshly squeezed orange juice along with lime juice.
Ensure to use 100% agave tequila for the best taste and quality.
