The Senorita is one of the 15 Tequila based drinks in the Café Royal Cocktail Book, published in 1937. I have written the recipe as it appears in the book, which happens to be in parts, rather than ounces or ml.
1/3 Gin
1/3 Tequila
1/3 Fresh Lime or Lemon Juice
2 dashes Grenadine
Shake
In my opinion, two dashes of Grenadine doesn’t quite do the trick. I would up the Grenadine to the point where you feel it balances the acidity of the Lime or Lemon juice. I personally prefer Lime Juice is this drink and will recommend nothing less than freshly squeezed juice!
