Ingredients
Coarse sea or kosher salt
1 lime wedge

3/4 oz. fresh lime juice

Instructions
Pour an even layer of salt on a plate. Rub the rim of an 8-ounce rocks glass or tumbler with lime wedge and invert glass into salt to coat rim.

Fill the shaker halfway with ice, then add tequila and Cointreau. Cover and shake well until shaker is frosty and cold.
Fill prepared glass with ice. Strain margarita into it and garnish with the remaining blackberry.
