Trudy's Mexican Martini

Direct from Austin, here is my twist on a marvelous recipe for Trudy's famous Mexican Martini. It's served not only at Trudy's, but in other restaurant and bars around Austin.

2 fluid ounces tequila (Herrdaura Silver)
1 fluid ounce Cointreau liqueur
1 -2 fluid ounce Sprite
1 lime, juice of

Shake all ingredients and strain into glass rimmed with salt; add stuffed olives.

The original recipe calls for an additional splash of orange juice, but I leave it out. This a very smooth and refreshing cocktail, and goes great with guacamole and chips and loud Texas music.
