Margaritas

Directions

1. 1
   Place the lime juice, Triple Sec, and tequila in a blender with a few ice cubes.
2. 2
   Add the egg white, if using, and process until well mixed and frothy.
3. 3
   Pour into a chilled glass edged with salt or sugar (see Notes) and containing 4 or 5 ice cubes.
4. 4
   FRUIT VARIATIONS: For other fruit flavors, cut fruit such as watermelon, strawberries, or pineapple into chunks and place in a liquid measuring cup, not exceeding 1/2 cup.
5. 5
   Pour lime juice over the fruit to the 1/2-cup measure.
6. 6
   The juice will fill in the nooks and crannies and always seems to be just the right blend of lime to fruit.
7. 7
   Frozen fruits can be used.
