Method
Prepare Glass
Salt rim
Run the lime wedge around the rim of a rocks or coupe glass to moisten. Pour the coarse kosher or margarita salt on a small plate and gently dip the rim into the salt, rotating to coat evenly. Tap off excess salt.
Fill the prepared glass with 1 cup of fresh ice and set aside.
Mix Cocktail
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz Conciere Reposado Tequila, 1 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz agave syrup.
Add ice and shake
Add about 6 count ice cubes to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and well chilled.
Strain
Double-strain (or fine strain) the contents of the shaker into the prepared glass over the fresh ice to remove small ice shards and any pulp.
Finish & Serve
Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim. If using, express a touch of lime zest over the top for extra aroma and drop it in.
Serve immediately. Suggestion: sip slowly to appreciate the reposado's oak and agave syrup's balance with the lime.
