Title: The Perfect Margarita
 Categories: Beverages, Alcoholic, Dkuhnen msn
      Yield: 1 Servings
-----------------FOR DECORATING THE GLASSES----------------------
      1 T  Tequila
      1 T  Salt

------------------------THE FORMULA-----------------------------
      2 oz Fresh lime juice
      2 oz White tequila
      2 oz Triple sec or Cointreau
      8    Ice cubes
----------------SPECIAL EQUIPMENT SUGGESTED---------------------
      2    Saucers (for dipping glasses
           Into)
      4    Coupes (shallow wide-mouthed
           Wineglasses) about 3/4-cup
           Capacity
           An electric blender
 
  Preliminaries:  To make the traditional ring of salt around the rims
  of the glasses, pour a little tequila into one of the saucers, and
  the salt into the other.  Turn the glasses upside down, one by one,
  dip the rim first into the tequila, shaking off excess liquid, then
  into the salt; and set the glass upright.
  Making the cocktail:  Measure the fresh lime juice, tequila, and
  orange liqueur into the container of the blender, pour in ice, and
  puree, pulsing the machine on and off for a few seconds.  If you want
  a uniform frozen effect, puree until you hear no ice crackling;
  otherwise leave in a few bits of ice - a matter of taste.  Serve at
  once, pouring into the middle of each glass so as not to disturb the
  ring of salt. Source:  Chef Zarela martinez, of 'Zarela' restaurant,
