Method

Dampen the rim of a chilled cocktail glass with a lime wedge then dip it into fine sea salt. Pour the tequila, Cointreau, blue Curaçao, lime juice and grapefruit juice into a cocktail shaker. Add the ice cubes and shake vigorously for 10 seconds then strain into the cocktail glass. Decorate with a lime rind spiral.

Tip:- To make a citrus spiral, pare the rind from the fruit with a canelle knife or vegetable peeler then wind it tightly around a glass swizzle stick.
