The Cantarito has proven the point for years: grapefruit and tequila are a fantastic mix. Yet not all tequilas are as fitting as others, it just so happens that this mixed drink's namesake, Patron is one of the winners. There is something about this simple cocktail, with its lightly spicy silver tequila and the tangy citrus of grapefruit, that is near divine. I do suggest fresh grapefruit juice because the bottled and concentrated versions leave a lot to be desired so you'll want to get your juicer out for this on for sure.
