Cocktail Hour - The Perfect Margarita

Hog Island Oyster Company
It hasn't exactly felt like summer in San Francisco, not that I'm ever one to complain about such things, but we are making the most of this foggy, 68-degree "summer." We spent a pretty glorious weekend in Pt. Reyes surrounded by some of my favorite people and good food. And what's a weekend spent with friends without a nice cocktail or three?

 I read a little blurb in Bon Appétit a few months back about a simple fresh margarita that made me salivate immediately. I have been buying weekly batches of limes ever since and whipping up a quick margarita whenever I feel like it.
