"The recipe given here is modified from one in _Mexican Kitchen_ by Rick Bayless. Rick Bayless calls it Frontera's
Gold Martarita. I won't because it isn't anymore."

1/4 cup Grand Marnier

1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
1/4 cup sugar

Steeping the margarita mixture. Mix the tequila, Grand Marnier, lime juice, lime zest, and sugar in a glass or
plastic pitcher until the sugar dissolves.
