Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Glass

Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of a chilled glass. Dip the rim of the glass into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 1 oz of orange liqueur. Fill the shaker with ice.

3

Shake the Cocktail

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.

4

Strain and Serve

Strain the mixture into the prepared salt-rimmed glass filled with ice or serve straight up, depending on your preference. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
