The Original Margarita Recipe

First created in 1948 Acalpuco, Mexico by socialite Margarita Sames, the Original Margarita is the perfect combination of sweet, sour, and spirit. While plenty of creative, flavored variations of this classic cocktail have since been concocted, the Original Margarita recipe has just three key ingredients: Cointreau, tequila, and fresh lime juice.

This is the right way to make a margarita, except I use curacao. I do like Cointreau in other recipes over curacao though.
