To use, moisten the rim of your glass with a lime wedge or a bit of liquid. Then, dip the moistened rim into the sangrita salt, rotating the glass to ensure an even coating. The salt will stick to the rim, providing a flavorful experience as you drink. It is particularly effective when used with chilled beverages, as the condensation helps the salt adhere. Experiment with different amounts to find your preferred level of saltiness and flavor.
