Cocktail

Method

Prep & Rim

1

Prepare glass

Choose a chilled rocks or coupe glass. Run a lime wedge around the rim of the glass to wet it evenly.

2

Pour the coarse kosher or sea salt onto a small plate. Turn the glass upside down and gently dip the wetted rim into the salt so it adheres evenly. Set the glass aside.

Mixing

3

Combine ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, add 2 oz Torada Reposado Tequila, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.5 oz agave syrup, and 0.5 oz Italian orange liqueur.

4

Add ice and shake

Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is cold and slightly frosted.

5

Strain

Double-strain (using a Hawthorne and fine mesh strainer if available) into the prepared salt-rimmed glass. Serve over fresh large ice if using a rocks glass, or without ice if using a coupe.

Finish & Garnish

6

Garnish with a lime wheel or twist on the rim or floated on top. Optionally express a lime peel over the drink to add extra aroma.

7

Serve immediately.
