How do you get the salt to stay on the glass for a Margarita?!


Question: How do you get the salt to stay on the glass for a Margarita!?
I make Strawberry Margaritas all the time,and I even have the little Mexican hat salt container that you can dip the glass in upside down to get the salt on the rim of the glass!.
But no matter what I do the salt wont stay on the glass like the restaurants!!!
How can I get the salt to stay on the glass nice and thick all the way around!?!?!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Most ppl dip the glass onto lemon juice or orange b4 u dip the salt!. The citrus from the juice won't throw off the salty taste!.

But I try a very light mix of honey and water or simple syrup!. Give a light dip and then the salt or u can use sea salt!. It'll give a sweet and salty taste!.!.!.which is a tasty a surprise, if ur into that kind of stuff!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

My mom uses honey because it doesn't evaporate and it makes it taste somewhat sweet!. also, put the salt on the inside of the glass so it doesn't spill away!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Stick a wedge of lime on the glass (like 1/4 embedded) and run it all the way around!. Make sure the salt isn't too damp already otherwise it will just clump up and fall off!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Either use frosted glasses ,dampen the rim of the glass with a moist towel, or rub a lemon or lime on the rim!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

moisten the rim with liquid of you choice then put saly on a paper towel and put glass upside down on the salt the wala salted rimWww@FoodAQ@Com

Rub a fresh cut wedge of lime around the glass, and use kosher salt or salt flakes instead, u don't get the full salt hit!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Rub the rim with a wedge of lime, then dip it in a small plate of salt!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You have to dip the glass in water first!. Then what ever rimmer you're using will stick to the glass!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
