Servings: 1 drink
Ingredients
- 2 oz Jägermeister
- 1 oz tequila preferably blanco
- 1 oz lime juice
- 1 oz triple sec
- 1/2 oz agave syrup or simple syrup
- Lime wedge for garnish
- Salt for rimming the glass, optional
Instructions
- Prepare the Glass: If you like a salted rim, rub a lime wedge around the rim of your glass and dip it into a plate of salt. Set the glass aside.
- Mix the Drink: In a cocktail shaker, combine Jägermeister, tequila, fresh lime juice, triple sec, and agave syrup. Add a handful of ice.
- Shake It Up: Shake the mixture vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This helps to chill the drink and blend the flavors together.
- Serve: Fill your prepared glass with ice and strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass.
- Garnish: Add a lime wedge to the rim of the glass for a fresh, zesty touch.
