1
Prepare the Glass
Start by rimming the glass with salt. To do this, run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass, then dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly.
2
Mix the Cocktail
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of lime juice, 1 oz of triple sec, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.
3
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice or serve it straight up if preferred. Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim.
