Tommy’s Margarita is a riff on the Classic Margarita. It was invented in 1990 by Julio Bermejo at his parents’ restaurant called Tommy’s in San Francisco, California. After being introduced to Agave Nectar, he put it in a Margarita to help enhance the agave flavor of the Tequila. This is an Official IBA Cocktail.
