Step-by-step
- Rim the edge of a glass with salt. Do this by dipping the rim of the glass in a shallow bowl of water or running a cut lime wedge around the rim, then dipping into a shallow bowl of salt.
- Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake with ice to chill.
- Strain into the salt-rimmed glass.
- Garnish with a lime wedge, if using.
