Ingredients
  

  • 2 oz tequila
  • 0.5 lime juice
  • grapefruit soda to top
  • lime/grapefruit garnish
  • salt rim optional

Instructions
 

  • Build in glass, preferably a Collin's or highball filled with ice.
  • Add in tequila and lime juice, stir to mix.
  • Top with grapefruit soda of your choice.
  • Garnish with lime or grapefruit or both.

Notes

  • If you're doing the salt rim, do it before filling the glass with ice. Wet the rim of the glass with lime or grapefruit, and press it into a small dish filled with salt.
  • Some recipes call for freshly squeezed grapefruit juice + club soda, others call for grapefruit soda. I used grapefruit soda for a stronger flavor.
