Shouldn't, logically, the order in which the colored juices/liquor be reversed in the directions? Blue on the bottom, red in the middle and the last would be the orange juice instead of first? Love the name!

I'm a true beer drinker but had some tequila on hand after mex nite and did some experimenting - wasn't bad but give me my beer back. The color layers were intriguing.

I have heard of this drink, but never had a recipe for one. Thanks to you, now I do. The taste is so wonderful. The way the colors layer is really neat. I like almost any tequila based drink so this was right up my ally. My husband and I had a great evening, if you know what I mean ;)
