[Jose] Cosmo-ritas!

We totally ripped this off of the Friday's menu.  See, my roommate worked there last summer and this was one of her favorite beverages.  It also happened to be the first drink I ordered when I turned 21 (yes we went to Friday's at midnight?).  Now we had to make some serious changes here--for one we're college students and naturally didn't have any Patron just laying around the apartment.  Secondly, this would have been a lot easier if we had a shaker-- less innovative, but much easier (and less messy)


My roommate was the one who actually made these so props to Brittany for putting together such an amazing beverage.  I'm going to try to remember how she did it and, if I mess up, see comments for Britt's amendments.  Two of these are going to get you feeling real happy... if Britt makes them... so just be prepared for that...

what you need...
3 parts cranberry juice
3 parts lime juice
3 parts silver tequila
1 part triple sec
margarita salt for salting the rim
lime wedge

what you need to do...
1. Salt the rims of the glasses.  To do this, wet just the rim and then dip it in margarita salt.  Look at that eh?
2. Combine cranberry juice, lime juice, tequila and triple sec in a shaker with ice and shake well.  Pour into glasses and serve with ice.  Finish with a fresh lime wedge. YUM!
