There’s really no trick to making a great margarita. The classic technique is a time-honored one. You just have to understand which ingredients to use for your perfect drink. Like all drinks in the “sour” category (think whisky sour, pisco sour, traditional daiquiri, sidecar), the classic margarita follows well-known proportions: 1 ½ to 2 ounces of the base spirit (tequila), about 1 ounce of something sour (lime juice here) and about 1 ounce of something sweet (simple syrup, agave syrup or orange liqueur or a combination). If you like a tart drink, you’ll go less than an ounce of the sweet stuff; for a sweeter version, use it all or lessen the tangy lime. For the brightest-tasting margarita, choose unaged (silver/blanco) tequila and a clear orange liqueur (Cointreau is the most famous). For a very smooth margarita, choose a slightly aged reposado or a fully aged añejo tequila and a dark (brandy-based) orange liqueur (Grand Marnier is a well-known example). I can only recommend tequila that is 100% agave (the mixtos don’t deliver a true tequila flavor), but I choose a mid-priced one for margarita making, not a more expensive, “sipping” quality bottle. The better the bottle of orange liqueur, the better the drink. The low-proof inexpensive triple sec orange liqueurs typically have a fairly washed out flavor. Agave syrup gives a more velvety texture to your margarita than simple syrup, plus it is sweeter than simple syrup that’s made from 1:1 proportions (1 cup water, 1 cup sugar). Fresh-squeezed lime juice (juice you squeeze from limes) is the lynch pin of a great margarita. Even the stuff called “fresh squeezed” in the grocery store will make a less than stellar cocktail.
Makes 1 cocktail
Coarse (kosher) salt
1 lime wedge
1 ½ to 2 ounces 100% agave tequila (blanco for brightness, reposado or añejo for smoothness)
About 1 ounce fresh-squeezed lime juice (more for a brighter drink, less for a sweeter drink)
About ½ ounce orange liqueur (a clear one for brightness, an amber-brandy-based one-for smoothness)
About ½ ounce simple syrup or agave syrup (use the full amount if you like a sweeter margarita)
Spread the salt on a small plate. Moisten the rim of a 6-ounce martini or coupe glass with the lime wedge and upend the glass onto the salt to crust the rim. In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur and syrup. Fill about 2/3 full with ice. Cover and shake vigorously until frothy and cold; about 15 seconds is the right amount of time to properly dilute and chill the drink and to create enough tiny shards of ice to float on the finished cocktail, giving it a refreshing appearance. Strain into the prepared glass and serve right away.

I'm not sure it's still called a margarita, but I've been using this basic recipe except using mezcal instead of tequila. A mezcalita maybe? Anyway, 2 oz mezcal, 1 oz fresh lime juice, 1/2 oz simple syrup, 1/2 oz Curacao. Amazing!
@kenmore01

I googled margaritas years ago and the Wikipedia recipe from the IBC came up: Three parts fresh lime juice, four parts triple sec and seven parts tequila. Being an industrious drinker, of course I made a pitcher and bought the more expensive (but cheap compared to Cointreau or Gran Marnier) 60 proof triple sec. Then, my wife and I became quickly blotto! They tasted perfect, but you are right Rick, when you say dilution is important! Fortunately it was a Sunday and we could have a nice siesta before our tacos. 😃

Grand Mariner and Pierre Ferrand Curaçao are both orange -flavored brandy liqueurs. Meaning brandy + orange liqueur. Cointreau is a pure orange liqueur or triple-sec (actually extra-sec). My preferred ratio is 2:3:5, sour:sweet:strong. I stay away from syrups , if I want it sweeter, I’ll up the ratio of orange liqueur and take down the tequila.

I believe it's called a Cadillac margarita when you use Grand Marnier, and that's my fave. Costs just about the same as Cointreau, or a bit less, and makes it taste fantastic with a half ounce. Couple more tips are when u buy limes, feel them out to make sure the fruit walls are slightly thin, you'll get more juice that way. And you could buy specific margarita salt, but I just get a box of kosher salt with the big flakes, dump a bit on a the paper towel or whatever I cut the limes on and rim the glass on that. For lazy prep u can shake your drink in a mason jar style glass and keep the ice if you don't feel like straining, and crack a bit of salt around the rim with a salt grinder. Just don't use a super cheap tequila.

Shake with crushed ice, pour in a salted glass with crushed ice. Never had a complaint.

The margarita is the drink that got me into cocktail making as a hobby. Had them at various times, wondered how they were made, looked at the label of a plastic jug of "Margarita mix" and made two observations and one conclusion: 1) I can't pronounce half of what's listed on the label. 2) It looks like the Prestone I use in my car's radiator. 3) There MUST be a better way! I found it after some experimenting. My standard is 2:1:1 Legado Reposado, lime juice, and Pierre Ferrand Curacao with a bar spoon of agave syrup.

So I bought some agave syrop. Now I put just 1/2 tsp of it in a jigger and then fill up the rest to 1 oz. with Cointreau. Adding more agave syrop was too sweet. This way I can still taste the Cointreau. For me the best margarita. Take 2: I changed it to 1 oz. Cointreau and tossed in 1/2 tsp. or agave syrop. Now the Cointreau has its usual dominance and the agave syrop is a secret ingredient with a definite effect. This kicked it up a notch.

Grand Marnier is not only brandy based but is itself barrel aged, so if there's reposado or anejo tequila in your mixed drink I feel the drink has a conflict and one should stick with Cointreau. Use key limes if at all possible.
