Method
Cocktail
Prepare glass (optional)
If you prefer a salted rim, rub a lime wedge around the rim of a chilled coupe or rocks glass and dip the rim into coarse salt. Set glass aside.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice (about 1 cup).
Add 2 oz tequila, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz agave syrup, 0.5 oz orange liqueur, 0.5 oz fresh grapefruit juice, and 2 dashes Angostura bitters to the shaker.
Shake vigorously for 12–18 seconds until the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted.
Double-strain the mixture (use a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer) into the prepared chilled coupe or rocks glass over fresh ice if you used a rocks glass, or straight up if using a coupe.
Garnish
Express the oils of the grapefruit twist over the drink by holding the twist skin-side down over the glass and giving it a quick pinch, then drop the twist into the drink or rest a grapefruit wheel on the rim.
Serve immediately and enjoy.
