Cocktail
Garnish & Glass
Method
Prep the Glass
- 1
Pour the coarse salt or Tajín onto a small plate. Rub the rim of a rocks or coupe glass with the lime wheel to moisten it, then dip the rim into the salt/Tajín to coat evenly. Set the glass aside.
Build & Shake
- 2
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz reposado tequila, 1 oz fresh lime juice, 0.75 oz orange liqueur, 0.75 oz fresh blood orange juice, and 0.5 oz agave nectar. Fill the shaker about two-thirds full with ice.

Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is cold and slightly frosted. This chills and dilutes the cocktail to balance flavors.
Strain & Finish
- 4
- 5
Top with about 1 oz grapefruit soda to add a bright effervescence and a light bitter-sweet lift. Gently stir once to integrate the soda without flattening it.
Garnish
- 6
Garnish with a lime wheel and/or a blood orange wheel or twist on the rim. Serve immediately.
