Here's the best approximation I've seen, but not the best: http://www.recipezaar.com/95987 Also good (and closer to a martini) is the classic margarita, a 3:2:1 mix of tequila, triple sec, and lime juice (fresh, of course). In lieu of being able to make the perfect margarita, I frequently make the very satisfying paloma (grapefruit soda, juice of 1 lime, shot of tequila) or El Diablo (shot of tequila, half shot of creme de cassis, juice of one lime, ginger ale). Both are good recipes that nicely highlight the flavor of the tequila. Best margarita I’ve ever had is Trudy’s (in Austin) mexican martini, which is really just a margarita served in a martini glass.
