- 0.5 oz Agave syrup
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 1 piece Lime wedge (for garnish)

Add 2.5 oz of tequila, 1 oz of Cointreau or Triple Sec, 1.5 oz of freshly squeezed lime juice, and 0.5 oz of agave syrup into the cocktail shaker.
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.
Fill your prepared glass with fresh ice cubes if desired.
Strain the margarita mixture into the glass, ensuring it’s poured smoothly over the ice.
Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Muy Fuerte Margarita responsibly.
