Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Take a lime wedge and rub it around the rim of your glass. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, lime juice, triple sec, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.

    Shake It Up

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice (if desired) or serve straight up without ice.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass and serve immediately.
