Ingredients
- 2 oz blanco tequila
- 1 oz fresh lime juice

- lime wedge for garnish
Instructions
- Run a lime wedge around the rim of your highball glass, then dip it in tajín or salt.
- Fill the glass with ice.
- Add tequila, lime juice, coconut water, and syrup to a shaker. Add Cointreau if using.

Notes
Fresh lime juice makes a big difference. Skip the syrup for a lighter drink, or add grapefruit juice for a citrusy twist. Topo Chico delivers the crispest bubbles. Chill your tequila and glass for an extra cold, refreshing serve.
