The margarita is a cocktail that is traditionally served in the United States and made of tequila, triple sec, and lime or lemon juice. The freshly squeezed lime juice is a key ingredient in this recipe. The thick-skinned Persian lime is the most popular lime in the United States. When margaritas are made with lemons, they have a much softer flavor.

There are several ways to sort out the legends associated with the margarita's origins. Two things are certain: the cocktail contained tequila and the bartender edged the rim of the glass with salt, and the cocktail included tequila; the cocktail contained tequila. When drinking straight tequila, especially if the quality was bad), In Mexico, the best course of action was to down it in one swallow, suck on a wedge of lime, and lick a dash of salt off the back of your hand.
