Description: A tequila-based Bloody Mary, swapping vodka for tequila and lemon for lime to lean more Mexican in flavor.

Cultural Background: A natural tequila adaptation of the classic Bloody Mary, popular especially at Mexican-inspired brunch menus.

Tips: Rolling the mix gently (rather than hard shaking) avoids over-foaming the tomato juice.

Variations: A pinch of Tajín or chili-lime seasoning on the rim leans further into the Mexican flavor profile.

Serving Suggestion: Serve over ice as a savory, spiced brunch classic.
