Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Prepare glass

    Fill a highball or Collins glass with ice to chill while you build the drink. If you prefer, lightly rim the glass with a lime wedge.

  2. 2

    Shake base

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz Tito's Handmade Vodka, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup. Add a handful of ice to the shaker (enough to chill without over-diluting). Secure the lid and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until well chilled.

  3. 3

    Combine

    Discard the chilling ice from the glass if desired and fill the glass with fresh ice (cubed). Strain the shaken mixture into the prepared glass over the fresh ice.

  4. 4

    Top and finish

    Top the cocktail with approximately 2 oz club soda (adjust to taste). Gently stir once or twice to integrate. Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim.

  5. 5

    Optional finishing touches

    For extra aromatic depth, add 1–2 dashes of Angostura bitters on top or a small squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Serve immediately.

Optional variations / tools

  1. 6

    If you prefer a stirred drink rather than shaken (less aeration), combine vodka, lime juice and simple syrup in a mixing glass with ice and stir for 20–30 seconds, then strain into the prepared glass and top with club soda.

  2. 7

    To make simple syrup: combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan, heat gently until sugar dissolves, cool before using. Store refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.
