Stir the lime juice, tequila and Triple Sec together to make your margarita base.

Pour about 1/3 cup of margarita mixture into a champagne glass, and fill the rest of the glass up with champagne. Or if using a different glass, you need a ratio of about 1/3 cup margarita mixture to 1/2 cup champagne.
If desired, stir in a teaspoon or two of sweetener to sweeten each glass. Enjoy!
