Cocktail
Garnish & service
Method
Prepare glass
- 1
If you prefer a salted rim, rub the lime wedge around the outer rim of a rocks glass, then dip the rim into coarse salt to coat. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.
Build & shake
- 2
In a cocktail shaker add the reposado tequila (2 oz), fresh lime juice (0.75 oz), agave syrup (0.5 oz), orange liqueur (0.5 oz) and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.
- 3
Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is cold to the touch and properly diluted.
Serve
- 4
Strain the cocktail into the prepared rocks glass over fresh ice (about 1/2 cup). If you did not salt the rim, you can serve neat in a chilled coupe or rocks glass without salt.

Garnish
Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim or floated on top. Optionally express an orange peel over the drink to add bright citrus oils before discarding.
