Tommy's Margarita Cocktail Recipe
A modern classic Margarita variation created in the early 1990s by Julio Bermejo at Tommy's Mexican Restaurant in San Francisco. It omits orange liqueur in favor of agave nectar to highlight the flavor of high-quality 100% agave tequila, resulting in a cleaner, less sweet, and agave-forward drink.
