Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of your glass to moisten it. Dip the rim into salt (or chili powder if you prefer a spicy kick) to coat it evenly.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, and agave syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.

Shaking and Serving

  1. 3

    Shake the Cocktail

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

  2. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. Optionally, you can add fresh cilantro leaves on top for an aromatic touch.

  3. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately.
