It was created by Denver Post restaurant critic Tucker Shaw. I am put it here for safe keeping :). Ingredients:
4 ounces tequila |
2 ounces cointreau liqueur, triple sec or 2 ounces another favorite orange-flavored liqueur |
2 ounces fresh lime juice, takes about 2 limes |
1 teaspoon simple syrup or 1/2 teaspoon sugar |
lime, rounds (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add all ingredients and shake for 30 seconds. Set aside.
2. Place a lime round into the base of a salt-rimmed martini glass.
3. Shake the margarita 15 seconds more, then strain into glasses.
4. Serve immediately.
5. If ice is desired place a lime round into the base of a highball glass, fill halfway with ice and pour margarita over the top.
6. *SIMPLE SYRUP: Easy to make. Take one part sugar and one part water, bring it to a boil, stir to dissolve and cool. Can be made as far in advance as you like, just store it in the fridge.
