Method
Cocktail
Prepare the glass (optional)
If you like a subtle savory accent, pour the smoked salt or flaked sea salt onto a small plate. Rub the rim of an old-fashioned glass lightly with a lime wedge and dip the rim into the salt to coat. Set the glass aside and chill briefly (or fill with ice to chill while you prepare the cocktail).
Combine ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz reposado tequila, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz agave syrup, 0.5 oz orange liqueur and 2 dashes Angostura bitters.
Add ice and shake
Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup), secure the lid, and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker feels cold and slightly frosty.
Strain and serve
Discard the chilling ice from the prepared glass if used. Place one large ice cube (or a few fresh ice cubes) into the glass. Double-strain the shaken cocktail over the ice into the chilled, salted glass using a Hawthorne and fine strainer if available to catch small ice shards and citrus pulp.
Garnish and finish
Express a lime peel over the drink to release oils, wipe the rim with the peel if desired, then drop the peel into the drink or perch a lime wheel on the rim. Serve immediately.
