1 ounce (30mL) lime juice, plus lime wedge to wet the rim
Salt and/or Tajín
Ice
1 ounce (30mL) tequila
1 ounce (30mL) Cointreau, Grand Marnier, or other orange liqueur
2 ounces (60mL) Champagne, cava, or prosecco
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Run a lime wedge over the rim of a chilled serving glass, and dip in salt and/or Tajín.
Step 2
To a cocktail shaker, add ice, lime juice, tequila, and Grand Marnier. Shake for 20 seconds to chill, and pour into a chilled serving glass.
Step 3
Top with sparkling wine, and serve.
Optional: For a fun twist, muddle some fruit and/or herbs to flavor the cocktail. I like pineapple and jalapeño, passionfruit, or basil and strawberries.
