Prepare the Ingredients
Wash the cilantro thoroughly and chop it coarsely. Slice the jalapeño in half, remove the seeds for less heat (if desired), and chop it finely.
2
Prepare the Glass
Take a glass and rub a lime wedge around the rim. Dip the rim into salt to create a salted rim effect.

3
Combine Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add the chopped cilantro, finely chopped jalapeño, tequila, fresh lime juice, and agave syrup.
4
Shake
Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well mixed and chilled.

Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice. Optionally, garnish with a sprig of cilantro or a slice of jalapeño.
