Ingredients
- 3 cups tequila
- 1 1/2 cups lime juice
- 1 1/2 cups triple sec
- 1/2 cup simple syrup (adjust to taste)
- Ice for serving
- Lime wedges for garnish
Instructions
- Chill a large pitcher or beverage dispenser in the refrigerator before preparing the cocktail to keep the drink cool.
- In the chilled pitcher, combine 3 cups of high-quality tequila, 1 1/2 cups of freshly squeezed lime juice, 1 1/2 cups of triple sec, and 1/2 cup of simple syrup.
- Stir the ingredients thoroughly with a long bar spoon to ensure complete mixing and even distribution of flavors.

- Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together, if time permits.

- Pour the margarita mixture over the ice, filling each glass about 3/4 full.
- Garnish each glass with a fresh lime wedge on the rim for added visual appeal and a hint of citrus.
- Optional: If desired, rim glasses with salt by running a lime wedge around the glass rim and dipping in coarse salt before filling.
- Serve immediately and enjoy responsibly.
