Pour the salt onto a small plate. Invert the glass and dip the rim into the salt to create a salted rim. Set the glass aside.
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes.
Add tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, cranberry juice, and orange juice to the shaker.
Secure the lid and shake well for about 10-15 seconds until the mixture is chilled and fully combined.
Fill the prepared glass with ice cubes, if desired.
Strain the cocktail mixture from the shaker into the glass.
Garnish with a lime wedge and an orange slice on the rim of the glass.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Margarita Madras!
