                Watch food editor Melissa Roberts introduce Key limes and demonstrate how to juice the tiny fruits.
            
            
            
            
            
                - 1 Key lime (optional), quartered
- Kosher salt (optional) for rims of glasses
- 3/4 Cointreau or other orange-flavored liqueur
- 1/2 cup reposado tequila
- 1/2 cup fresh Key lime juice
- 2 teaspoons superfine granulated sugar (optional)
- 
                                            
                                            Run a lime wedge (if using) around rim of each of 4 (6- to 8-oz) glasses. Put salt (if using) on a small plate and dip glasses in salt to lightly coat rims.
