There is nothing like a good Margarita to help kick off the weekend.  Especially when they are a little sweet, a little tart and a little salty.  That’s why I adore this Classic Margarita.

And, it doesn’t really doesn’t get much easier than this.  It’s definitely one of my favorite simple cocktail recipes.

I used Casa Noble Tequila Blanco in this cocktail.  This award winning tequila is triple distilled resulting in a pure tequila full of agave flavor.

You can easily make this cocktail by the glass or multiply the recipe and make a big pitcher.
