Margarita
The margarita is the most common of tequila-based cocktails. This drink was most likely created at bars of Tijuana or Ciudad Juárez.

Most margaritas are lime flavored, but strawberry or other flavors are not uncommon, especially when frozen.
Margarita is also the Latin word for pearl

3.5 ounces sour mix (NOT margarita mix)
1 ounce orange liqueur
1 ounce lime juice
