In a cocktail shaker, combine the fresh lime juice, tequila, triple sec, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.
3
Shake the Cocktail
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice. Optionally, garnish with a lime wedge.
