Ginger Sunrise

LIQUOR:
DIFFICULTY:

In Mexico, the locals are less likely to drink a margarita and more likely to order a combination of tequila and grapefruit juice. This cocktail adds a savory twist with lime and fresh cilantro leaves. The Big O and honey syrup take the tartness down a notch and lighten this cocktail, making a perfect summer pleaser – south or north of the border.
