In celebration of the 100th post on this blog, let's have cocktails from an old recipe booklet published by Tequila Sauza, another little gem from Granny's collection. Granny and Gramps visited Mexico, often during the holidays. While Gramps played in golf tournaments for charity, Granny would shop and relax by the pool. During one trip they were given a personal tour of the Tequila Sauza plant. Must have been fun, since they brought back some very fine tequila. Salud!
