Method
Prepare glass
Rim the glass
Run the lime wedge around the rim of a chilled highball glass. Dip the rim into coarse salt or Tajín laid on a small plate to coat evenly. Fill the glass with ice and set aside.
Build the cocktail
Measure & pour
In a mixing glass or shaker (no shaking required for carbonation), measure and pour 2 oz blanco tequila, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 1 oz fresh grapefruit juice, and 0.5 oz agave syrup.
Combine
Stir the tequila, citrus juices, and agave lightly with a bar spoon for about 10 seconds to integrate and chill slightly.
Top with ginger beer
Strain (or pour) the mixture into the prepared highball glass over the ice. Top with approximately 3 oz of ginger beer. Give one gentle stir to combine — avoid over-stirring to preserve carbonation.
Garnish & serve
Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and, if using, a grapefruit twist expressed over the drink to release oils then dropped in. Serve immediately with a straw if desired.
