Step 1
Moisten rim of margarita glass or martini glass with fresh lime juice.
Step 2
Hold glass inverted and sprinkle salt around the exterior of the glass, over the lime juice (this helps keep salt from getting in the drink).

Squeeze a little lime juice into the glass and drop the lime wedge in.
Step 4
Add ice cubes to a cocktail shaker, and top with tequila, lime juice, and triple sec.
Step 5
Cover with lid and shake vigorously.
