Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- 1.5 tablespoons agave syrup
- 1 cup sparkling water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons coarse salt
- 1 piece lime wedge
- 1 piece orange slice
Instructions
Start by preparing the glass. Rub the rim of your serving glass with a lime wedge to moisten it.
Place the coarse salt on a small plate and dip the moistened rim of the glass into the salt to coat it evenly. Set the glass aside.
In a cocktail shaker or a large jar with a lid, combine the fresh lime juice, fresh orange juice, and agave syrup.
Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to thoroughly chill and mix the ingredients.
Fill the prepared glass with fresh ice cubes and strain the citrus mixture into the glass.
Top off the drink with sparkling water, stirring gently to combine.
Garnish with a lime wedge or an orange slice for a decorative touch, and serve immediately.
