Tips for customizing
Use whatever brand tequila and triple sec you have on hand
Swap the reposado tequila for silver or gold
Use simple syrup in place of the agave, adjusting the amount to taste as needed
Play with flavors by using a flavored simple syrup or swapping some of the lime juice with other juice such as watermelon or strawberry
Use store bought lime juice if you don't want to squeeze fresh lime juice
For a single serving margarita, just keep the proportions the same using 3 parts tequila, 2 parts cointreau, 1 part lime juice, and agave to taste
