I firmly believe that the key is to use a minimal amount of high-quality ingredients. My go-to, classic margarita recipe - what I like to call the 3 2 1 margarita - uses just 3 ingredients, and this version only adds one more (excluding the garnish, of course). Use good tequila, fresh lime juice, and absolutely nothing that involves a mix, and you’ll be well on your way to a great cocktail.
