1-1/2 oz. gold tequila
1/2 oz. Cointreau (or triple sec)
1-1/2 oz. red wine (blend or any red wine will work)
juice from half of a lime
kosher salt (we prefer it to Margarita salt)
1 c. white sugar
1 c. water
juice from 2 oranges
juice from 2 limes
juice from 2 lemons
Sweet Sour Mix: Boil water and sugar until dissolved. Set aside to cool to room temperature. Add juice from 2 oranges, 2 limes and 2 lemons to water/sugar mixture. Refrigerate and use as needed for each drink.
For Each Drink: Rub lime wedge around rim of a tall or highball-size glass and dip rim in kosher salt.
Fill glass with ice and add the tequila, Cointreau, red wine and juice from half of a lime (use wedge for garnish). Top off with sweet sour mix (2-3 oz. for a short glass, 3-4 oz. for a tall glass).
Stir with stick to mix up. Add squeezed lime wedge in to drink and enjoy.
