The best thing about making your own rim salts at home is that you can customize them however you like.  Set up your own custom salts bar and invite your guests to experiment with different salt textures and flavorings to create a custom mix that they can take home with them.

DIY Homemade Rim Salts

To make your of rim salts, start with 1/4 cup of salt and add about 2-4 teaspoons of your favorite flavorings to taste.  For a sweeter touch, try adding a sugar rim to your cocktails.  You can find some of my favorite rim sugar recipes here on the blog.
