Tried this using rhum clement canne bleue and it very nearly got "sinked". I'm 66 and don't have time for not good enough if I don't like move on.
Added 10ml of Simple syrup and acceptable.
I will be honest salt on my chips yes - in my cocktails I just don't get.
With a Margarita I use a Tagin rim.
Sorry but this one is not for me.

Did you use 2 drops of 4:1 saline? Salt can be used to counter sourness/bitterness. It shouldn't really taste "salty" when we're talking about 2 drops of 4:1 saline in 90+ ml of liquid.
