Ingredients:
- 1.5 oz fresh lime juice
- 0.5 oz fresh orange juice
- 0.5 oz light agave nectar
- 2 oz sparkling mineral water
- 1 tiny pinch fine sea salt
- 1 tbsp coarse kosher salt
- 1 lime wedge
Instructions:
- Prep the rim. Take 1 lime wedge and run it around the edge of a chilled glass. Note: This acts as the glue for your salt.
- Apply the salt. Dip the damp rim into 1 tbsp coarse kosher salt on a small plate until a thick, white crust forms.
- Combine the base. Pour 1.5 oz fresh lime juice and 0.5 oz fresh orange juice into your shaker.
- Sweeten it up. Add 0.5 oz light agave nectar. Note: Agave dissolves much faster in citrus juice than in cold water.
- Season the mix. Drop in 1 tiny pinch fine sea salt. Note: This enhances the citrus notes and cuts any bitterness.
- Chill the core. Fill the shaker halfway with large ice cubes.
- The big shake. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 15 seconds until the shaker feels painfully cold to the touch.
- Strain the mix. Pour the contents through a strainer into your salt rimmed glass filled with fresh ice.
- Add the sparkle. Top the glass with 2 oz sparkling mineral water.
- Final garnish. Place a fresh lime wedge on the rim until the drink looks vibrant and ready for a toast.
