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).

Step 3

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.

Step 6

Pour into prepared glass and serve.
