1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by rimming the glass with salt. To do this, run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass and then dip the rim into a plate filled with salt. Set the glass aside.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, lime juice, triple sec, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice cubes, covering the liquid.
3
Shake the Cocktail
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice if desired. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
