2 tsp sea salt flakes
1 tsp caster sugar

step 2

Pour the tequila, triple sec, lime juice, sugar syrup and remaining molasses into a cocktail shaker with a handful of ice and shake until the outside of the shaker feels really cold.
step 3

Fill the prepared tumblers with ice cubes, then pour in the cocktail.
