Pro Tips
Since there is bitter and tart taste involved, you may need to adjust the sweetness of the cocktail. After you mix the drink, do the taste test. Adjust your cocktail to find a perfect balance of flavors you love.
If you want to present it even fancier, rim your glasses with salt. Rub a grapefruit or lime wedge around the edge of the glass. Dip the glass edges onto a small plate of salt.
To make this drink mocktail or virgin, skip the tequila.
