Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Rub the rim of a chilled cocktail glass with a lime wedge to moisten it. Then, dip the rim into a plate of coarse sea salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Drink

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 1 oz of Cointreau. Fill the shaker with ice.

  3. 3

    Shake It Up

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

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice, or serve straight up without ice if preferred.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for an extra touch.
