Creator/contributor's comments:
Very popular drink for the beach in the Puerto Vallarta area.
Is refreshing and delicious. An alternative ingredient is called "sal
de gusano" (worm salt), made in Oaxaca, Mexico, and is made from toasted
agave worms, chili and salt, using it istead of regular salt. Be
careful, though, to use only 1/4 of a teaspoon on this one, because it
is VERY strong (but tastes really great).
Hope this helps....
