Carlos "Danny" Herrera created the recipe for Majorie King, which is a Ziefield dancer who had a certain allergy to many spirits, according to Days of the Year.

Another story claimed that it was invented in Galveston, Texas by Santos Cruz for his favorite customer, singer Patty Lee.

In 1953, Esquire magazine first published a recipe calling for an ounce of tequila, with a dash of triple sec, and the juice of half of a lime or lemon.
