  1. Start by preparing your cocktail glass. Pour a thin layer of salt onto a small plate, then take a lime wedge and run it around the rim. Dip the rim into the salt until fully coated.
  2. Fill the salted glass with ice, ensuring it occupies about three-quarters of the way full. Squeeze juice from the remaining lime wedge over the ice.
  3. In a cocktail shaker, combine apple cider, pear juice, gold tequila, and Grand Marnier. Fill the shaker with ice, cover it, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds.
  4. Strain the cocktail into your prepared glass over the ice, and enjoy the aromatic blend of fall flavors.
