1
Prepare cocktail
Fill a cocktail shaker about two-thirds full with ice (roughly 1 cup). Add 2 oz blanco tequila, 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice, and 0.5 oz agave nectar to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the exterior of the shaker is frosty and well chilled.
2
Strain
If serving on the rocks: Fill a rocks glass with fresh ice and double-strain the mixture into the glass using a Hawthorne or fine-mesh strainer. If serving straight up: double-strain into a chilled coupe or martini glass.

3
For a salted rim: Rub the lime wedge around the glass rim, then dip the rim into the salt to coat. Use the same lime wedge as garnish: cut a small slit and place on the glass. Serve immediately.
