Method
Preparation Steps
Prepare the Glass
Take a lime wedge and run it around the rim of a chilled glass. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. Set aside.
Mixing the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of tequila, 1 oz of fresh lime juice, 1 oz of triple sec, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup. Fill the shaker with about 1 cup of ice cubes.
Shake it Up
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to combine and chill the ingredients.
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with ice, or serve it straight up without ice if preferred.
Garnish
Garnish the drink with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
