Charles H. Baker was an author that wrote about his food and drink discoveries whilst traveling the world. He discovered this drink whilst he was in Mexico City in 1937 and later featured it in his book The Gentleman's Companion: The Exotic Drinking Book.
The Mexican "Firing Squad" Special is now known a little differently. Nowadays the most common recipe uses the classic sour template (2 oz tequila, 3/4 oz lime juice, 3/4 oz grenadine), plus bitters. And many like to serve it tall with soda water, although the original recipe omits this.
The original Mexican Firing Squad recipe called for a tall collins glass, 2 jiggers of tequila, the juice of 2 small limes (not exactly an accurate measurement!), 1.5-2 teaspoons (1/3 oz) of grenadine and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

The drink is bright, tart and strongly dependent on using a good quality grenadine. Don't skimp out here.
