The Perfect Margarita
  1. Combine salt and chili powder on a small rimmed plate.

  2. Swipe the rim of two glasses with the first lime wedge and dip it in the salt mixture.

  3. Fill glasses two-thirds of the way with ice.

  4. Combine tequila, Cointreau, and lime juice.

  5. If you’d like, you can shake it up in a cocktail shaker or jar with a few large ice cubes until the jar/shaker feels too cold to hold, or that’s my rule.

  6. Pour (strain if coming from a shaker) over ice in glasses, being careful not to rinse off the salt rim.

  7. Garnish each with remaining lime wedges.
