Mexican Martinis

Move over Long Island Iced Teas and AMFs and say hello to the Mexican Martini! This is a drink that is guaranteed to knock your socks off so sit back and relax...on second thought, it might be better to stand up for this one. The Mexican Martini is an awesome take on your standard tequila infused cocktail. The original Mexican Martini hails from a restaurant in Austin, TX called Trudy's where students and locals alike indulge in this badly behaved bevy. In fact, these cocktails are so crazy that there is a limit of two Mexican Martinis per customer down in Austin...you have been warned! Lucky (or unlucky-depending on how you look at it) for you we have the recipe so you can create your very own astonishing aperitifs.
