1
Prep the glass
Run a lime wedge around the rim of a chilled rocks or coupe glass. Spread the coarse sea salt on a small plate and dip the rim into the salt to coat evenly. Set the glass aside.
2
Mix the cocktail
Fill a cocktail shaker with large ice cubes. Add 2 oz Clase Azul Plata tequila, 1 oz fresh lime juice, 0.75 oz Cointreau, 0.5 oz agave syrup and 2 dashes orange bitters to the shaker.
3
Shake
Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted (shaker should feel cold).
4
Strain and serve
Double-strain the cocktail into the prepared glass over fresh large ice (or serve straight up in the chilled glass without ice if you prefer).
5
Garnish
Express a lime wheel over the drink to release oils, then drop it onto the rim or float it on top. Serve immediately.
6
Optional adjustments: For a brighter citrus profile, increase fresh lime juice to 1.25 oz and reduce agave to 0.25 oz. For a sweeter, fruitier variation, add 0.5 oz fresh orange juice and reduce the Cointreau to 0.5 oz.
