Preparation

  1. 1

    Rim the Glass (Optional)

    If you prefer a salted rim, take a lime wedge and run it along the rim of your glass. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it lightly.

    Mix the Ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Shake the Cocktail

    Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Fill the prepared glass with ice cubes. Strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass over the ice.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish the drink with lime wedges on the rim of the glass.
