Tequila Cocktails

 Tequila is a Mexican spirit, distilled from the pulque which in turn, is distilled from the sap of the maguey plant, a vegetable similar to a cactus. Tequila is a refined form of mescal, taken by the Indians of Mexico as part of their religious ceremonies.

All recipes for tequila cocktails are modern, as this spirit has only recently acquired a respectable reputation in society, being pioneered chiefly in southern California. Salt is used in the Margarita, since tequila is traditionally drunk as a neat spirit with just salt and lemon juice on the tongue.
