There are two different kinds of margaritas.a classic version or a frozen version, but no matter which one you make, its sure to quench your thirst. all you need to remember when you're making a margarita regard less of which version you're making is two one one. that's the ratio of tequila and cointreau or triple sec and lime juice. you can choose silver or white tequila or you could choose a repisado tequila which is a tequila that's
Petrone Tequila, been aged in an oak barrel for two to twelvemonths. this one's a little more mellow in the flavor. some people like it better.you're gonna juice your limes fresh and then of course take a wedge of lime and run the lime around the rim of the margarita glass and then dip just the outside of the rim in salt. the first cocktail i'm going to make is the classic style, and for that i am going to choose the silver or the white tequila. we're going to put two ounces of the tequila into the cocktail shaker. then we're going to add one ounce of freshly squeezed lime juice. and then we're going to add one ounce of cointreau. now here's where you can use triple sec if you want to, but i like the flavor of the cointreau, so that's what i use. now some people like their margarita sweetened a little bit. if you're one of those people, use agave syrup. it makes a lot of sense because it's of course from the same plant that the tequila is made from. just about half an ounce. now i use a light colored agave syrup just because it won't then discolor the margarita itself. once that's in the cocktail shaker, we're going to fill it up with some ice. make sure that lid is on nice and tight and then we're going to shake it up and pour it out. i use a strainer.i'm gonna pour that right into our glass. and there is our classic margarita, straight up. now, let's make the frozen version. So here i am cutting off the peel of the lime and i'm gonna make two margaritas in this vitamix blender. so to do that i need two limes. so the lime is now in. i need to go with my tequila and let's use the repisado for this version. so here i'm gonna put four ounces of the tequila, two ounces of the cointreau and one ounce of that light agave syrup just to sweeten it up a little.now to that i'm going to add three cups of ice. there we go. now we blend it up. once it's all blended and smooth, now we just have to pour it out into that glass and we're ready for it because we prepared our glass ahead of time. and there you go, margarita frozen style, classic style. let's garnish them both with lime and you're ready togo. thanks for watching. if you'd like to see more of the basics, click over here. if you'd like to learn about the vitamix blender, click over here, and if you have any comments,questions or suggestions for more basic, put them in the comments section below.
