THE PERFECT MARGARITA
Mastering the margarita requires a certain amount of practice, but once you dial-in your perfect ratio, it's a really easy cocktail to replicate. The classic recipe is 3 parts tequila, 2 parts triple sec, and 1 part freshly squeezed lime juice, and you should probably start off pretty close to that, but my personal favorite proportions are 4-3-2.

Steps:
- Put the oranges, lemons, and limes through a juicer. Pour the juice into a large pitcher. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve. Then stir in the Cointreau, Triple Sec, and tequila.
- To serve: Pour salt onto a small plate. Run a lime wedge around the top of each glass and dip the glass in the salt. Fill each glass halfway with ice and pour in the juice mixture. Garnish with a lime wedge and serve.
- Chef's note: Farm freshness is the key here. Look for the citrus that is mostly in season and adjust the recipe. Tangerines, Meyer lemons, and key limes all have amazing flavor if you can find them.

- Set up your station: lay a wet paper towel down and a small cutting board over it; first, slice all your ripe meyer lemons in half (take 1 half and slice 2 pinwheels from it, juice what remains). Then, grab citrus juicer to juice approx. ¼ cup of liquid. Pour the juice into the shaker along with 1 tablespoon of sugar cane. Stir together for 30 seconds–until all sugar is completely dissolved. TIP: save your meyer lemon remains to rim your glass with and to later make a preserve.
- Gather your 1½ oz. of Patrón Silver Tequila, and add it into your shaker along with ½ cup of ice cubes. (OPTIONAL: to really jazz up your margarita, add half of ripe passion fruit into the shaker, you won’t be disappointed!) Lock in your shaker and shake for 45 seconds until outside of your shaker gets icy.
- Before straining over your glass, be sure to grab the remaining ½ of meyer lemon and fold it over the lip of your glass and around to salt the rim (have the salt on a small plate to spin the lip of the glass onto). Once the rim is salted, fill the glass up ½ way with ice then pour the strained drink over it. Garnish with a meyer lemon pinwheel.
