I call the Margarita my specialty....here's how it's made:
Moisten the rim of a barrel glass with a cut lime, then dip in salt. Fill the glass with ice.
Add 1-1/2 oz tequila, 1/2 oz triple sec, 1-1/2 oz orange juice, and 1-1/2 oz sweet and sour (or substitute 1 oz fresh lemon juice and 1/2 oz simple syrup for the sweet and sour).
Stir, then float 1/2 oz Grand Marnier on the top and squeeze a wedge of lime.
Yum!
Bar Tip: Don't waste "sippin'" quality tequila on a mixed drink - save it for shots or sippin'. That said, a decent tequila is important even in a mixed drink. My fave is Zapopan Reposada, available at Trader Joe's for $9.99.
