A delightful twist on the classic margarita, combining the tangy freshness of lime with the nutty sweetness of Amaretto.
Juice the fresh lime into a cocktail shaker.
Rolling the lime on the countertop before juicing can help extract more juice.
Add the triple sec, sugar, and Amaretto to the shaker.
Ensure the sugar dissolves completely for a smoother drink.
Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds.
Shaking thoroughly chills the drink and blends the flavors.
Strain the mixture into a glass filled with fresh ice.
Using a fine strainer can help remove any pulp or ice shards.
Garnish with a lime slice and serve immediately.
A lime slice or twist adds a decorative and aromatic touch.
