1
Prepare glass
If you want a salted rim, spread the smoked sea salt on a small plate. Rub the rim of a chilled rocks or coupe glass with a lime wedge, then dip the rim into the salt to coat lightly. Set the glass aside.
2
Combine ingredients
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Add 2 oz Rey Campero Espadín mezcal, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz fresh grapefruit juice, 0.5 oz agave syrup, and 0.25 oz orange liqueur.
3
Shake
Cap the shaker and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker is very cold and well-chilled.
4
Strain and serve
Double-strain the cocktail into the prepared chilled glass over fresh ice (or serve neat in a chilled coupe if preferred).
5
Garnish
Express a grapefruit twist over the drink to release the oils, rub the twist on the rim if desired, and drop it in or float a thin grapefruit wheel on top.
6
Serve immediately and enjoy the bright citrus notes balanced by the smoky, vegetal Espadín character. Adjust future batches by adding more agave syrup for sweetness or more grapefruit for tartness.
