Instructions
- Begin by making the cinnamon simple syrup: In a small saucepan, combine equal parts water and sugar (e.g., 1 cup each), along with a pinch of ground cinnamon. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, then let it cool. Store in an airtight container for up to one month.
- Prepare your glass by running a lime wedge around its rim and dipping it into a shallow dish filled with salt. Set aside.
- In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine tequila blanco, freshly squeezed lime juice, and cinnamon simple syrup. Shake well until chilled.
- Strain the mixture into the prepared glass. Garnish with a lime twist or wheel.
