1
Prepare the Glass
Start by rimming the glass with lime juice. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup (if using).
3
Add Ice
Fill the shaker with ice, covering the liquid completely.
4
Shake It Up
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
5
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice, being careful to avoid any ice from the shaker.
6
Garnish
Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
