It is no secret that one of my favouite hobbies is enjoying a great margarita. There is no reason to ever buy a pre-mix cocktail from a bottle or box after you try my absolute favourite, fool-proof margarita- SALUD!

3 oz Blanco Tequila, preferably Lalo or Don Julio
Juice of 1 whole lime
2 oz Triple Sec, preferably Cointreau
1/2 oz agave nectar
Lemon-lime sea salt for rim (not optional for best results)
