1
Prepare the Glass
Start by rimming your glass with salt. To do this, take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of the glass to moisten it. Then, dip the rim of the glass into a plate of salt, ensuring an even coating.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, Cointreau (or Triple Sec), fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.
3
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice or serve it straight up in the rimmed glass without ice. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
