Margaritas Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh sliced strawberries or
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 to 3 tbsp sugar
• 4 tbsp tequila
• 10 to 12 ice-cubes

Steps

1. Wet the lip of the glasses with a lemon wedge and then invert the glass over a plate of salt. Pick up the glass gently and dust off any excess salt. Place carefully on the bar table. Youre ready to conjure up heady Margaritas.
2. You could rim the glass with a colour which is in contrast to the Margarita-a-yellow or green coloured rim for a strawberry or watermelon margarita. All you have to do is add a few drops of food colouring to the salt.
3. Traditionally, Margaritas are served in glasses with stems shaped like a cactus, which keep the Maxican theme and complement the colour of a well-made Margarita. However, you may use any stemmed glass – like I have done – that strikes your fancy.
4. Frozen Margaritas are best served in a wide mouthed glass. If you are serving Margaritas over crushed ice, a tumbler-like glass is preferred.
5. Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend till you have a thick slushy puree.
6. Pour into salt rimmed glasses and serve immediately.
