TEQUILA SOLEIL

Think of the Tequila Soleil as a Negroni (with tequila) meets a spritz (with beer) meets that wonderful feeling of relief only an ice cold drink on a hot summer afternoon can bring. The vermouth - use blanc if you have it, sweet red if you don't - tempers the drink, but the key to a perfectly balanced Tequila Soleil lies in how you build it. Namely, you'll want to add the ice last. This small switch in technique has a big impact, keeping the beer from deflating on impact and thus retaining a bubbly, refreshing vibe for much longer.

Time 5m

Yield 1 drink

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 ounce reposado tequila
1/2 ounce red bitter liqueur, such as Campari, Cappelletti or Contratto Bitter
1/2 ounce blanc or sweet red vermouth
4 to 6 ounces I.P.A. (preferably a session I.P.A.), chilled
Ice

Steps:

  • In a Collins or wine glass, add the tequila, the liqueur and vermouth. Pour the beer over top to taste. (Start with 4 ounces for a stronger, more bitter drink, and add as needed, up to 6 ounces total, for a milder, hoppier drink.) Add ice, to taste, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use good quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the final product will be. This is especially true for tequila, which is the main ingredient in all of these recipes.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making tequila cocktails. Try different types of tequila, mixers, and garnishes to find your perfect combination.
  • Have fun: Making cocktails should be a fun and enjoyable experience. So relax, experiment, and enjoy the process.

Conclusion:

Tequila is a versatile spirit that can be used to make a wide variety of delicious cocktails. Whether you're looking for a refreshing summer sipper or a cozy winter warmer, there's a tequila cocktail out there for you. So next time you're looking for something new to try, reach for a bottle of tequila and get creative. You won't be disappointed.
