Method
Prep
Rim the glass
Run the lime wedge around the outer rim of a Collins or highball glass. Dip the rim into coarse salt or Tajín placed on a small plate to evenly coat. Set the glass aside.
Fill the rimmed glass with ice to chill while you build the drink.
Mixing
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker or mixing glass filled halfway with ice, add 2 oz Milagro tequila, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, 2 oz fresh grapefruit juice, and 0.25 oz agave syrup if using. Shake vigorously for 8–10 seconds to chill and lightly dilute.
Strain and top
Discard the ice from the chilled serving glass. Strain the shaken mixture into the glass over fresh ice (about 3/4 cup). Top with 2 oz sour grapefruit soda. Gently stir once to combine.
Finish
Taste and adjust: if you prefer sweeter, add up to an additional 0.25 oz agave and stir gently. If brighter, add a small squeeze of the remaining lime wedge.
Garnish with a grapefruit wedge or twist on the rim and the used lime wedge. Serve immediately.
