Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare Glass

Chill a rocks or coupe glass by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or filling with ice water while you mix the cocktail. Pour out the ice water (if used) and pat dry.

2

Rim (optional)

Spread the smoked salt on a small plate. Run a lime wedge around the rim of the chilled glass, then dip the rim lightly into the smoked salt so you have an even but not heavy salt edge.

3

Combine Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz Casamigos Mezcal, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz orange liqueur, and 0.5 oz agave nectar. Add plenty of ice to the shaker (about 4–6 oz of cubed ice).

4

Shake

Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold and well chilled (this also dilutes the drink appropriately).

5

Strain and Serve

Double-strain (using the shaker lid and a fine mesh strainer if available) into the prepared chilled glass over one large ice cube or neat in the chilled glass, depending on preference.

6

Garnish & Finish

Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim. Optionally express a lime peel over the top to release oils. Serve immediately.
