1
Prepare the Glass
Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of a glass. Dip the rim of the glass into a small plate of salt to coat it evenly.

Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, and 1 oz of orange liqueur. Fill the shaker with ice.
3
Shake the Cocktail
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.
4
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice or serve straight up if preferred. Garnish with a lime wedge.
