What you need:
1. Combine the lime zest, agave syrup, and sea salt in a 32 oz Mason jar.
Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with clean ice (and a few mint leaves if you have them). Shake well for 10 seconds or longer. Strain through a fine mesh strainer. Garnish with crushed pink peppercorns or a mint leaf.
