4 Summer Tequila Cocktails

Over the weekend, I made a few cocktails for a party I was going to, and thought it would be fun to share the recipes. I love tequila cocktails in the summer - I mean who doesn’t love a margarita or paloma?! They’re so refreshing, delicious, and simple to make. So, here are the four recipes I tried and my honest opinion of each. Cheers!

1. Spicy Jalapeno Margarita (Recipe)

This was my favorite drink of the four I tried! You can't go wrong with just a simple spicy margarita - delicious and super easy to make! If you want it to be spicier, definitely muddle up the jalapeno a bit before mixing it up!

2. Pineapple Margarita (Recipe)

This one is definitely the prettiest, but probably my least favorite to taste. If you love pineapple, this drink is for you! Also super simple to make!

3. Blackberry Jalapeno Margarita (Recipe)

This one was a close second to the spicy jalapeno margarita! The muddled blackberries and jalapenos made the margarita full of flavor (and a pretty color)! I made this for a tequila party with my friends and it was a crowd favorite!

4. Strawberry Paloma (Recipe)

This one is a super refreshing drink for summer! I loved how light it was to drink. The only thing I would change would be to substitute the grapefruit soda with a berry flavored one or something similar, only because grapefruit isn't my favorite. This one took the longest to make as it required us to make the strawberry simple syrup from scratch. It’s totally worth it though if you love palomas!
