Yield Makes 1 margarita

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt, optional
4 thin slices cucumber, plus a ¼-inch-thick slice for garnish
2 sprigs fresh cilantro
½ cup ice cubes
2 ounces (¼ cup) silver tequila
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) fresh lime juice
½ ounce (1 tablespoon) agave syrup
½ ounce (1 tablespoon) Bols Triple Sec

Steps:

  • To salt the rim of your glass, fill a shallow bowl with water. On a small plate, pour a circle of salt. Dip the rim of a rocks glass or margarita glass in the water, then dip it into the salt and set it aside.
  • In the bottom of a cocktail shaker, muddle the 4 cucumber slices with 1 cilantro sprig until the cucumber releases most of its juices and the cilantro is smashed and fragrant. Add the ice cubes, tequila, lime juice, agave syrup, and triple sec. Cover and shake vigorously for 4 seconds. Pour the drink, including the ice, into the glass. Serve the margarita garnished with the remaining cucumber slice and cilantro sprig.
