Shady Lady

Found this recipe in a not so likely place, bar tending for dummies recipe book (Thanks again Mr. Foley!).

Thought the combo was clever and the name is very Dr. Seuss so, I'll post it and I did take some modern creative license:

Shady Lady

1 oz. "good" reposado tequila (I used Don Julio)
1/2 oz Midori
2 oz Ruby red fresh squeezed grapefruit juice
2 sugar cubes

Muddle cubes in juice. Add ice and liquor, Shake until you arms hurt. Pour in to a tall salt rimmed glass and top with soda water. Very nice!

If you have any favorite flicks that feature bartenders, we'd like to know about 'em...

We're thinking about revising our list or updating it in the future.
