Margarita (Esquire, December 1953)

   Sorry about those two "white shoes"...There was a "nudnik" somewhere here in 1953, but I forgot to copy it.
   From ESQUIRE, December 1953, "Painting the Town" column, pg. 76, col. 3:

_POTABLES_
_Drink of the Month_
   She's from Mexico, Senores, and her name is the Margarita Cocktail--and she is lovely to look at, exciting and provocative.
1 ounce tequila
Dash of Triple Sec
Juice of 1/2 lime or lemon
   Pour over crushed ice, stir.  Rub the rim of a stem glass with rind of lemon or lime, spin in salt--pur, and sip.
   Then there is another cocktail with a tequila base--the Flamenco Dancer:
Juice of 1/2 large lime
1 ounce tequila
1/2 ounce creme de cassis
   Squeeze the lime and drop the shell in a highball glass, fill with cracked ice, add the other ingredients, stir briskly and fill with ice-col ginger ale.
