Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp (15g) Coarse Sea Salt or Kosher Salt
  • 1 Fresh Lime Wedge
  • 2 oz (60ml) Premium Blanco Tequila (100% Agave)
  • 1 oz (30ml) Cointreau or high-quality Triple Sec
  • 0.75 oz (22.5ml) Freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 0.25 oz (7.5ml) Agave nectar
  • 1 cup Large, solid ice cubes

Instructions:

  1. Run the lime wedge around the outside rim of your glass. Dip the rim into the coarse salt. Note: Only coat the outside so salt doesn't fall into the drink and ruin the balance.
  2. Add the 2 oz tequila, 1 oz Cointreau, 0.75 oz lime juice, and 0.25 oz agave nectar into your shaker. Ensure the measurements are exact for the right ratio.
  3. Fill the shaker with 1 cup of large ice cubes. Secure the lid tightly.
  4. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds until the shaker is frosty and painfully cold to touch. Note: This aeration creates the tiny bubbles that give the drink a velvety texture.
  5. Strain the mixture into your prepared rocks glass filled with fresh ice. Watch for a slight foam on top.
  6. Garnish with the lime wedge. Serve immediately while the glass is still sweating.
