Margarita how to prepare the perfect cocktail with tequila. The perfect margarita, one of the most requested and simple cocktails in the bartender, its combination of tequila, lime juice and triple sec, never fails. Served with salt on the rim of the glass, it gives it that excellent touch with citrus.
It was the combination that introduced Mexican brandy to the US. There are many theories of the origin of the name, what they do seem to agree on is that it is dedicated to a woman. It is said that around 1936, in Puebla, Mexico, Danny Negrete, manager of the Hotel Crespo, prepared it for the first time for his girlfriend. Marjorie King, an American actress, also asked the bartender at the Gloria Bar to prepare it for her, since this was the only brandy she could tolerate. The bartender, in love with her, skillfully mixed her appropriate ingredients: tequila, salt and lime, added triple sec and created one of the most famous cocktails in history. Perhaps they are all assumptions, but it is clear that a woman was a fundamental part of his creation.

how to make the daisy
The first thing to do is decorate the glass, which should be a wide-mouth glass (classic for margaritas). We wet it with a slice of lime, pass it through a plate with salt until it adheres and decorate with the lime.
We put a few ice cubes in the cocktail shaker.
Squeeze the juice from a lime, you can use a juicer or a lime press, and pour the freshly squeezed juice into the shaker.
With the help of a measuring glass we add the tequila and the triple sec.
Shake the mixture well for 15 seconds, vigorously, and serve in our previously prepared glass.
You can always add a little crushed ice to the glass so that the flavor is somewhat lowered, it is a drink with salty, sweet, spicy and bitter nuances, splendid to drink alone or accompanied.
