Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare glass (optional)

If you prefer a salted rim, run a lime wedge around the outer rim of a rocks or coupe glass. Spread coarse salt on a small plate and gently press the rim into the salt to coat. Set the glass aside.

2

Combine ingredients

Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Add 2 oz Don Julio Blanco tequila, 1 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz agave syrup, and 0.5 oz orange liqueur to the shaker.

3

Shake

Seal the shaker and shake vigorously for about 10–15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted. This chills and dilutes the drink to balance the flavors.

4

Strain and serve

Fill the prepared glass with fresh ice (if serving on the rocks) or leave it chilled for a neat/coupe presentation. Double-strain the cocktail into the glass using a Hawthorne or fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards and pulp.

5

Garnish

Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim. Serve immediately.
