Tito's Recipe

Cocktail

1. 1

   Chill glass

   Place a highball or rocks glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to ensure the glass is nicely chilled.

2. 2

   If you used ice water to chill, dump the water from the glass and fill the glass with fresh ice (about 3/4 full). If you chilled in the freezer, add fresh ice to the glass now.

3. 3

   Build

   In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine 2 oz Tito's Handmade Vodka, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup. Shake vigorously for about 10–15 seconds until well chilled.

4. 4

   Strain & Top

   Strain the shaken mixture into the prepared glass over fresh ice. Top with approximately 2 oz soda water (adjust to taste) and give the drink one gentle stir (about 3–4 rotations) to integrate.

5. 5

   Garnish & Serve

   Garnish with a lime wedge or wheel on the rim. If using, slap the mint sprig between your palms once to release aromatics and tuck it beside the lime (optional). Serve immediately.
