Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Clase Azul Reposado Tequila
  • 1 oz Grand Marnier Louis-Alexandre
  • 0.75 oz lime juice
  • Dehydrated lime wheel or orange twist for garnish
  • Coarse salt for rimming, optional

  • In a shaker, combine tequila, Grand Marnier Louis-Alexandre, and fresh lime juice.
  • Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds.
  • Strain into a rocks glass over a large ice cube or serve up in a coupe glass.
  • Garnish with a lime wheel or an orange twist for an elegant touch.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Use fresh lime juice for the best balance of acidity and brightness.
  • Opt for a large ice cube to slow dilution and keep the drink chilled longer.
  • For an even more refined sip, consider using agave syrup (0.25 oz) if you prefer a touch of sweetness.
