Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Begin by preparing your glass. Take a lime wedge and rub it around the rim of the glass to moisten it. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, lime juice, triple sec, simple syrup, and ice. Make sure to fill the shaker with enough ice to chill the mixture effectively.

Shaking and Serving

  1. 3

    Shake the Cocktail

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels cold.

  2. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass. You can serve it straight up or over fresh ice, depending on your preference.

  3. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for an added touch of flavor and presentation.
