📜 History

Julio Bermejo created this variation at Tommy's Mexican Restaurant in San Francisco around 1990. By replacing triple sec with agave nectar, he created a template that became standard in craft bars worldwide. In 2008, it became the first venue-specific cocktail added to the IBA official list.
