INGREDIENTS
2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt
1 medium lime
Ice
1 1/2 ounces blanco or silver tequila
1 ounce orange liqueur, preferably Cointreau
1/4 ounce agave nectar or simple syrup (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Spread 2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt in an even layer on a small flat plate. Halve 1 medium lime. Cut 1 lime wedge from one half, then juice the remaining lime pieces until you have 1 ounce. Run the lime wedge over the rim of an Old-Fashioned or margarita glass to moisten. Invert the glass into the salt, turning it as needed, to coat the rim. Fill the glass with ice.
2. Place the lime juice, 1 1/2 ounces blanco tequila, 1 ounce orange liqueur, and 1/4 ounce agave nectar or simple syrup if using in a cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker halfway with ice, seal, and shake until the outside of the shaker is very frosty, about 20 seconds.
3. Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into the glass. Garnish with the lime wedge.
