Prepare glass
If desired, chill a rocks glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with serving ice to cool while you mix the cocktail.

Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, pour 2 oz reposado tequila, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz agave syrup, 0.5 oz orange liqueur, and add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

Add ice and shake
Add about 1 cup of ice to the shaker. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is well chilled and slightly frosted.

Strain and serve
Discard the ice from the chilled rocks glass if used. Add 1/2 cup fresh ice to the glass (or serve neat if preferred). Double-strain the cocktail into the glass over the ice using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer to catch any small shards.

Garnish
Express the oils of a lime wheel or twist over the drink and drop it into the glass or perch it on the rim. Serve immediately.
