Preparation:

Step 1
• In a small saucepan, combine sugar and 1/3 cup water. Cook over low heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
Step 2
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the tequila, lime juice, chilled syrup, liqueur, and 1 cup cold water. Freeze in an ice cream maker for about 45 minutes, following the manufacturer's instructions (see Chef's Note). Transfer the frozen cocktail to a chilled pitcher. Freeze until ready to serve.
Step 3
• Sprinkle salt evenly over a small plate. Wet the rims of 4 chilled rocks glasses or wine glasses and press them into the salt. Divide the Margarita between the glasses. Serve with lime wedges.
