Ingredients
- 2 ounces Tequila Blanco
- 4 ounces ginger ale
- 1 ounce lime, fresh squeezed (can use the juice from half a lime)
Instructions
- Add ice to a short cocktail glass.
- Add the tequila then top with ginger ale.
- Squeeze the juice from 1/2 of a lime.
- Taste and adjust ingredients as needed.
Notes
- Spicy - muddle fresh serrano peppers in the glass before adding ice to make it spicy!
- Reposado - You can use reposado tequila to give it a little bit more flavor. It's aged in barrels for a darker color and more complex flavor.
- Other Citrus - You can use fresh lemon, orange or grapefruit for a slight citrus twist.
- Ginger Beer - If you like the taste of ginger beer better, you can use that instead. That makes it closer to a Tequila Mule but it's still a tasty drink.
- Salt the rim - You can add a salt rim for a fantastic sweet and salty moment. You can learn 3 Ways to Rim a Glass here.
