1. Locate the Tweet anywhere on twitter.com.
2. Click the  icon located within the Tweet.

From the Twitter for iOS app:

1. Navigate to the Tweet you’d like the URL of.
2. Tap the  icon located at the top of the Tweet.
3. Tap Share Tweet via.
4. Select Copy link to Tweet. The URL should now be copied to your clipboard.
