Notes
- Tequila: Use a silver or blanco tequila. You can substitute with reposado, this will give a more complex flavoring.
- Ginger Beer: There is no actual alcohol in ginger beer, but it adds the flavor. If you substitute with ginger ale you will be missing the strong ginger flavoring.
- Lime Juice: Use freshly squeezed lime juice to avoid any additives or other flavorings.
