The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

1/2 cup triple sec
3/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
2 cloves garlic, crushed

3 medium tomatoes, diced
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno or Serrano chilies, or more to taste
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 pinch sugar

directions
Place fish in a dish large enough to hold it in a single layer. Combine tequila, triple sec, lime juice, salt, garlic and 2 tsp. oil and pour over fish, rubbing all over. Cover and marinate for 1/2 hour at room temperature or up to 3 hours in the refrigerator, turning occasionally.
Just before serving, combine tomatoes, onions, chiles, cilantro, sugar and salt to taste. Heat the grill to very hot. Remove fish from marinade, pat dry (reserving marinade) and brush lightly with 1 tsp. oil and grind pepper over the surface. Cook on a greased grill for about 4 minutes per side or until flesh is opaque.
Meanwhile, boil marinade in saucepan for 2 minutes, remove and discard garlic cloves, and spoon a little of it over the fish, Spoon the tomato salsa alongside and serve.

This has a wonderful flavor.I did the salsa on the stove carmelizing the onions first. I had a little marinate left and added that to the salsa also.

Would be a great marinade/sauce for snapper as well.
