About this drink
A San Francisco variation from the 1990s, usually credited to Julio Bermejo at his family's Mexican restaurant. Replacing the orange liqueur of a Margarita with agave syrup leaves only tequila, lime and sweetness, and the drink helped push bars towards hundred-per-cent agave tequila.
