Tequila can be an amazing spirit on it’s own, but when paired with a few of its flavorful friends is when the magic truly happens. The mix drink we have at the tasting table today was created out of necessity and curiosity. During one of our family get-togethers Keith was craving the refreshment of a gin and tonic. In a rare turn of events my other brother, Joe, was out of gin. I immediately posed the question, “What do you have?” After a bit of looking at the different options we decided that a blanco tequila would be a unique and possibly tasty substitution. The rest of the drink remained the same, but with the exchange of tequila for gin, the “Lovely Rita” was created. Watch the show and mix one up for yourself.
