Ingredients
- 2 ounces tequila (1/4 cup, see note 1)
- 4 ounces Coca-Cola (1/2 cup, see note 2)
- 1/2 ounce lime juice (1 tablespoon)
- 1 wedge lime for garnish
Instructions
- Fill a highball or other tall glass with ice. Add tequila, Coca-Cola, and lime juice. Garnish with a lime wedge.
Notes
- Tequila: Tequila blanco is lighter in body and perfect for making cocktails like this one. Tequila reposado (which means “rested” and is aged in oak for at least 2 months) is ideal for sipping.
- Coca-Cola: For extra authenticity, seek out Mexican Coca-Cola which is sold in glass bottles and made with real sugar.
- Yield: This recipe makes 1 Charro Negro cocktail.
- Glassware: The Charro Negro is traditionally made in a highball glass, an 8-ounce to 12-ounce glass tumbler such as a Collins glass (a regular pint glass will do, too).
