OK, what is all this talk of mixing grapefruit juice with Tequila?! That might be fine for the run of the mill José Cuervo crap (which by the way is 100% SYNTHETIC agavé juice, and therefore El Crapola!) NO, the proper Tequila is La Bandera. First, you cut a lime in thick slices. This goes on the Left. Then you fill a tall shot glass with 1 to 1 1/2 oz. of Don Julio Reposado (or Anejo) or José Cuervo Gran Centenario Tequila (all made with only natural agave juice from cactuses outside of Guadalajara!), and put it to the right of the lime. Then you fill another shot glass with Sangrita (it's a mix of mostly tomato juice, spices and orange juice, kind of thick, tastes very good!), and put it to the right of the tequila. Therefore, you have Lime, Tequila, Sangrita from left to right, or Green, White, Red, the colors of the Mexican Flag (La Bandera) Then it's pretty simple. Starting with the lime, you bite out the meat of the lime, shoot (slowly, not gunshot fast) the Tequila, then the Sangrita. It's a perfect mix of sour, fiery, and spicey, great after a dinner, or just by itself. And, if like me, after a few of them, you might find yourself singing along to the song Guadalajara (maybe out loud too!) Now THAT is how to do Tequila!! Viva la Revolution!!!
Oh, by the way, this is MUCH more healthy for breakfast since you're getting Orange juice, limes, and tomato juice all at once!!!
