It's not NOT a margarita...is it? This drink. I'm not sold on the name I gave it. It's like a margarita but only because of the tequila, and a martini in every other way. It's savory. Salty. Chilled. Downright delicious. It warrants chilling, straining and sipping but then that tequila creeps in and warms you up and tricks you into thinking maybe it's meant for tacos, I assure you-- it's not. There's no basil to distract, no mozzarella ciliegine pierced on a toothpick. This is a late afternoon sipper. A celebration of an August tomato. Is there anything better?
