BEST TEQUILA DRINKS

Here’s how to make these delicious tequila drinks!

• STEP 1: In a cocktail shaker, add Clamato and tequila.
• STEP 2: Add lime juice, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce to taste.
• STEP 3: Sprinkle in paprika, salt and pepper.
• STEP 4: Cover the shaker with a lid or glass. Shake to combine.

HOW TO GARNISH A BLOODY MARIA

1. Rub a juicy lime over the rim of a tall glass or mason jar.
2. Dip the wet rim of the glass into a plate of rimming salt. The best type to use for a Bloody Maria is chili-lime salt or Tajin seasoning.
3. Add ice to the glass.
4. Pour the tequila cocktail over the ice.
5. Garnish with a rib of celery. If desired, include skewers of olives, cocktail onions, crispy cooked bacon, grilled shrimp and a wedge of lime! Get even more festive: add a sprig of cilantro and a jalapeno.

EXPERT TIPS FOR An AUTHENTIC BLOODY MARIA

• USE FRESH INGREDIENTS: Whenever possible, use freshly-squeezed lime juice and crisp stalks of celery.
• USE CLAMATO: For an authentic Mexican taste, it’s important to use the right ingredients. Don’t cut corners by using standard tomato juice; your taste buds will be disappointed!
• NO HOT SAUCE? NO PROBLEM! In a pinch, you’ll need to get a little creative. For a spicy burn, try horseradish, jalapeno juice, or powdered mustard. Do a few small samplings until you reach the desired taste.
• PRE-MIX MEXICAN COCKTAILS: These tequila mixed drinks taste even better when made in advance. When prepping for large parties, mix the ingredients in a large beverage container a few hours before guests arrive. This will give the flavors a chance to combine and get extra tasty!
