For an extra touch of elegance, consider using a lime twist as an additional garnish. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. If you prefer a less sweet cocktail, reduce the sugar to 1/4 teaspoon or omit it entirely. Use the best quality tequila and orange liqueur you can afford, as this will significantly impact the final flavor of the cocktail. A high-quality lime squeezer is essential for extracting the most juice from the limes. It will save you time and effort. If you don't have superfine sugar, you can use granulated sugar. Just make sure to shake the cocktail a little longer to ensure the sugar dissolves completely.
