Notes
The original recipe that I loved used 3 1/2 oz tequila for 2 cocktails. I heard it seemed a bit too strong so I've revised it to 3 oz because it's easier to add a bit more than take away that same bit!
I loved it with the original amount but I did use a good aged tequila so test a bit so find the perfect mix for you.
