Reiben Sie den Rand des Glases mit der Limettenscheibe, damit das Salz daran haftet. Achten Sie darauf, nur den äußeren Rand zu befeuchten und das Salz darauf zu streuen. Das Salz sollte den Lippen des Trinkenden zugewandt sein und niemals mit dem Cocktail vermischt werden. Schütteln Sie die anderen Zutaten mit Eis und gießen Sie sie dann vorsichtig in das Glas.
