Method
Prep
Prepare glass
Rub the lime wedge around the rim of a rocks or highball glass. Spread the coarse salt on a small plate and dip the rim into the salt to create an even salted rim. Set the glass aside.
Measure ingredients
Measure tequila, agave nectar, fresh lime juice, and fresh orange juice. If using additional agave for sweetness adjustment, have it ready.
Mixing
Fill a cocktail shaker with the cubed ice (about 4–6 cubes). Add 2 oz Dulce Vida Lime tequila, 0.5 oz agave nectar, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz fresh orange juice to the shaker.
Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted.
If you prefer a slightly sweeter drink, add the optional additional 0.25 oz agave now and give a quick 3–4 second shake to combine.
Assemble & Finish
If you want a longer, lighter cocktail (skinny-style), top with 2 oz cold soda water and gently stir once to integrate. If you prefer it undiluted, omit the soda water.
Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim and a thin orange slice in the drink or on the rim.
Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer if desired.
