To prevent salt from getting inside the glass, hold it at a forty-five-degree angle and slowly rotate it through the salt.
- Make Margarita: add tequila, Cointreau, fresh lime juice, and rhubarb syrup into a cocktail shaker. Add a handful of ice and shake for 10 seconds.
- Serve: add a few ice cubes to the prepared glass. Strain margarita mixture into the glass and enjoy.
