Ingredients
- 2 ounces Tequila
- 1 ounce Orange liqueur (e.g., Cointreau or Triple Sec)
- 1 ounce Fresh lime juice
- 3 ounces Champagne or sparkling wine
- 0.5 ounce Agave syrup
- 1 tablespoon Coarse sea salt

- 1 piece Lime wedge
- 1 piece Fresh lime wheel
Instructions
Run the lime wedge around the rim of a margarita or champagne coupe glass.
Dip the rim of the glass into a small plate of coarse sea salt to coat it evenly. Set aside.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the tequila, orange liqueur, fresh lime juice, and agave syrup with ice cubes, and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds.
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice, leaving enough room at the top for champagne.

Garnish with a fresh lime wheel on the rim and serve immediately.
