In honor of National Tequila Day we partnered with our friends at Cabresto Tequila and our favorite mixologist, Ryan, from Middle West, to craft three bold tequila cocktails.

Proper Paloma

• 1.5 ounces Cabresto Reposado Tequila
• Jarritos Grapefruit Soda
• Splash of Proper Soda Hibiscus

This rendition of the classic Paloma starts with Cabresto tequila and adds a splash of Hibiscus Soda, from Proper Soda Co., for a tinge of sweetness and color. Garnish with a wedge of grapefruit and sprig of cilantro to complete your new summer standby.

Bloody Maria

• 2 ounces Cabresto Silver Tequila
• McClure’s Bloody Mary Mix

With ingredients as good as Cabresto tequila and McClure’s Bloody Mary Mix, you won’t need anything else to perfect this tequila-twist on the ol’ hair-of-the-dog…except maybe a pickle.

Pasado de Moda

• 2 ounces Cabresto Añejo Tequila
• 1 ounce agave syrup
• .5 ounce freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
• Dash of Angostura Bitters

Close the whiskey cabinet, and instead reach for Cabresto’s insanely smooth and smoky Añejo. Change up the traditional Old Fashioned by swapping out the orange and sugar cube for grapefruit and agave. Stir and drop in a garnished ice cube. You’re already garnishing your ice cubes, right?
