In fairness, I think calling it a 'tequila negroni' is fair, as it indicates
the change from the base drink. To use your analogy, a 'ranch dressing caesar'
to me would be a romaine, parmesean, crouton salad with ranch instead of
caesar.
I agree with the 'what kind of martini' sentiment though, a martini is a
martini; a vodka martini is something different, but once again indicates what
its based on, and what the changes are. A negroni is a negroni; a tequila
negroni is something different.
While you're picking up a bottle of tequila, get a bottle of mezcal and make
yourself (and lets just…. agree to disagree on the nomenclature I'm about to
use) a mezcal Last Word.
