Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • Kosher salt, optional
  • 4 thin slices cucumber, plus a ¼-inch-thick slice for garnish
  • 2 sprigs fresh cilantro
  • ½ cup ice cubes
  • 2 ounces (¼ cup) silver tequila
  • 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) fresh lime juice
  • ½ ounce (1 tablespoon) agave syrup
  • ½ ounce (1 tablespoon) Bols Triple Sec

Instructions

  1. To salt the rim of your glass, fill a shallow bowl with water. On a small plate, pour a circle of salt. Dip the rim of a rocks glass or margarita glass in the water, then dip it into the salt and set it aside.
  2. In the bottom of a cocktail shaker, muddle the 4 cucumber slices with 1 cilantro sprig until the cucumber releases most of its juices and the cilantro is smashed and fragrant.

Serve the margarita garnished with the remaining cucumber slice and cilantro sprig.
