Serves One
Ingredients
- 2 oz Reposado or Añejo Tequila
- 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice (never bottled—fresh makes all the difference)
- ¾ oz Premium Orange Liqueur (for that velvety orange depth)
- ¼ oz Agave Nectar (just enough to round it out)
- Ice
- Kosher Salt or Smoked Salt (for rimming—totally optional but adds a nice touch)
- Dehydrated Lime Wheel or Expressed Orange Peel for garnish
Instructions
- Rim your glass (optional): Use a lime wedge to wet the rim and dip in your preferred salt. Chill the glass while you prep.
- Shake: In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, lime juice, orange liqueur, and agave nectar. Add ice and shake like you mean it—about 15–20 seconds.
- Strain into your prepared glass or a rocks glass over a large ice cube.
- Garnish with a dried lime wheel or twist of orange peel, expressed over the glass for aroma.
