Bright, tart, and perfectly balanced, this classic sipper leans on fresh lime juice and a good blanco tequila for that clean, citrusy punch every great margarita needs. A shake with orange liqueur over ice gives it that frosty, well-blended texture before it gets strained into a salt-rimmed glass. The whole thing comes together in minutes with basic bar tools — a shaker, a rocks glass, and a little technique for the perfect salted rim. It's a straightforward, no-fuss cocktail that fits neatly into a gluten free lineup, so you can pour it with confidence for happy hour or a weekend gathering. Garnish with a lime wheel, serve it ice-cold, and it's ready to enjoy right away.
