1
Prepare the Glass
Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of a chilled cocktail glass. Dip the rim into salt to coat it evenly and set the glass aside.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of lime juice, and 1 oz of triple sec. Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and secure the lid.
3
Shake the Cocktail
Shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the mixture is well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass. Optionally, you can add fresh ice to the glass if you prefer it on the rocks.
5
Garnish
Garnish the drink with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
