This quiz tests Cocktail Selector Margarita - The classic. No explanation necessary, although the variety of mixers out there is boggling. The Cuervo premade mixer, with a dollop of Cointreau or Triple Sec, seems to make the best home-bar version. Here's the recipe, if you don't have the mixer: 2 teaspoons coarse salt, 1 lime wedge, 2 ounces tequila, 0.5 ounces Cointreau or triple sec, 1.5 ounces lime juice. Place the salt in a saucer. Rub the rim of a cocktail glass with the lime wedge and dip the glass into the salt ot coat the rim thoroughly; reserve the lime wedge. In a shaker half-filled with ice cubes, combine the tequila, Cointreau, and lime juice. Shake will. Strain into the cocktail glass. Garnish with the reserved lime wedge.
