But not just a lime garnish, it has half a lime squeezed into it. How do you ask for that when ordering? “Half oz of fresh lime juice”?

As someone who grew up with cattle, the term “ranch water” means something completely different and not anything you’d want to consume.

I’ve seen it as a canned cocktail but didn’t know it was a thing. Thanks for the explanation!

It’s a gin rickey (spl?) made with tequila instead of gin.

It’s just blanco tequila, Topo Chico (or soda water), and a juice from half a lime.
