Method

Cocktail

Prepare glass

Fill a highball or Collins glass with ice to chill while you mix the drink.

Mix base

In a shaker, add Bendita Vida Blanco tequila (2 oz), triple sec (1/2 oz), fresh lime juice (3/4 oz) and simple syrup (1/4 oz) if you prefer a touch of sweetness. Add a handful of ice (about 1 cup) to the shaker.

Shake

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds until the shaker feels cold on the outside and the ingredients are well combined and slightly diluted.

Strain and top

Discard the ice from the chilled glass and strain the shaken mixture into the glass over fresh ice. Top with approximately 3 oz club soda, pouring gently to preserve carbonation. Give the drink one gentle stir (1–2 rotations) to integrate the soda without flattening it.

Garnish and serve

Finish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim or floated on top. Serve immediately with a short stirrer or straw.
