Easy Cocktails for Sleepless Summer Nights🌙

Stroy from PinS - Easy Cocktails for Sleepless Summer Nights

I, editor K, never like summer because I am not good at dealing with hot weather. So I would love to share nice and cold ideas to sweep away a heatwave and tropical nights at once. After giving some thought, I brought simple and easy ways for you to make tequila cocktails. With these cocktails made in 10 minutes from store-bought ingredients at a market near my company, I could be laid back as if being at a cool bar. It might not taste like authentic cocktails. But who cares? It is so simple and makes you feel great. That's all matters.😉 Now, let's find out three ways to make cocktails with simple ingredients!!

▶ Read this if you...

✔ got tequila as a gift and are looking for cocktail recipes to make with it.

✔ like refreshing drinks rather than strong ones.

✔ have issues with sleeping in the tropical nights.

✔ can't sleep with so many thoughts in your mind.

What You Need

Tequila: I used Jose Cuervo Especial Silver

Sparkling Water

Simple Syrup: You can skip this if you don't like the sweet taste.

Iced Tea(Store-bought): You can use instant powdered tea.

Grapefruit Juice

Kosher Salt: Do not use table salt.

Lemon

Lime

Margarita

Let's start with a margarita, one of the most famous tequila cocktails. Margarita is a cocktail with a tangy taste, and most of you are probably familiar with it.☺

🍹Ingredients

Tequila
Ice Cubes
Salt
Lime

🍹How to make

Coat the rim of a glass with salt.
Pour tequila and lime juice at a 1:1 ratio in a glass filled with ice.(You can add simple syrup as your preference.)
Garnish with a lime wheel.

▶ How to salt the rim of a glass

Margarita usually is served on a salt-rimmed glass. The technique is so simple.🤗 Pour salt on a shallow plate, rub lime along the rim of the glass and dip it into the salt!

Pink Paloma

The scarlet color's pink Paloma, which makes your mouth water just by looking at it, is known for the bittersweet and sour flavor of grapefruit. The excellent taste, which is sweeter than a margarita, won't let you stop sipping it.

🍹Ingredients

Tequila
Ice Cubes
Salt
Lime
Grapefruit Juice
Sparkling Water

🍹How to make

Coat the rim of a glass with salt.
Pour tequila, grapefruit juice, and sparkling water at a 1: 1.25: 1.5 ratio in a glass filled with ice.

Iced Tea Tequila

Iced tea tequila is a refreshing cocktail with lemon and tequila in iced tea.

When a tasteful liquor, tea, and fruit are together, how can't it go wrong, right?😎

🍹Ingredients

Tequila
Ice Cubes
Lemon
Iced Tea

🍹How to make

Pour tequila and iced tea at a 1: 4 ratio in a glass filled with ice.

▶ Fast snacks to go with cocktails?

It's a super-quick canapé recipe made with ingredients that you can buy at any store.

I made it with diced mango fruit cups, crackers, and string cheese. However, the string cheese tasted a bit bland, so I was disappointed with the off-balanced flavors between sweet and salty. 😥 I recommend you to try cheddar or any other sliced cheese with salty tastes!
