Recipe for Mexican Martini?

[jerkhouse]

Does anyone have a good recipe for a Mexican Martini? I know they are similar to margaritas, but I'm not sure exactly what makes them different; does anyone have a recipe? They're so good; I'd love to know how to make them at home.

[Gifted Gourmet]

2 oz Tequila

1 1/2 oz Cointreau

2 oz Sweet and Sour Mix

1 oz Lime Juice

2 oz Orange Juice

1 splash Sprite

2 Olives

Pour all ingredients into a large cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake and strain into a large cocktail/martini glass (8+ ounces) with a salt rim. Add two olives on a spear, and serve.

here is the source for the recipe for this drink

It does look terrific!!

First, welcome to eG jerkhouse.

The Newest Cocktails

These exciting drinks are popping up on many Martini bar menus, making the menu fun to read while you consider which cocktail to order! Within the Dessert Martini category, I have seen some featured within the restaurant dining room’s Dessert Entrée menu. On an interesting bartending note, many cocktails are comprised of the most unlikely of ingredients making startling combinations that are sure to surprise you. Who would guess that a neutral vodka and hazelnut liqueur when combined with a hint of lemon tastes like chocolate cake? (* Denotes recipe is included).

Duh:

This is creativity overload, and perhaps when it has gone awry.

Tequila-tini: a Margarita; Hangover-tini: a Bloody Mary

For the most part, it is simply a Margarita in a cocktail glass.

Cheers!

TYPOS!
