Bright, tart, and perfectly balanced, this cocktail leans on fresh lime juice and a good pour of tequila to deliver that classic citrus punch without any heavy mixers weighing it down. The orange liqueur adds a subtle sweetness that rounds out the tang, while a salted rim gives every sip a savory contrast. Shaking it hard over ice is the key move here ā it chills the drink fast and gives it that frothy, restaurant-quality texture when strained into a rocks glass. Simple, few-ingredient drinks like this one fit naturally into a Mediterranean-style way of enjoying food and drink, where quality over quantity is the whole point. Garnish with a lime wheel, serve it ice-cold, and it's ready in under five minutes flat.
