Ranch Water
Bold, tart and fizzy, this blend of Blanco tequila, lime juice, and carbonated mineral water is a delightful thirst quencher with a kick. Use the suggested measurements as a reference and adjust to your preference. For a smoother taste, consider incorporating a hint of sweetness like simple syrup or orange liqueur, such as Grand Marnier or Cointreau.Elevate the flavor by rimming the glass with chile-lime salt. While Topo Chico is the classic choice for Texas ranch water, renowned for its effervescent bubbles, alternative sparkling waters can be used as well.
