Sparkling Tequila Summer Cocktail!

This post is sponsored by Tequila Cazadores. All recipes and opinions are my own.

I could not think of a more fun way to celebrate National Tequila Day! Today I am mixing Cazadores Tequila Blanco to prepare a Sparkling Tequila Summer Cocktail, a delicious tequila cocktail to share with friends. Three words I love: tequila, summer and cocktail! When it comes to cocktails during the summer, I like them to be light and refreshing.

Follow my easy recipe below for this sparkling tequila summer cocktail prepared with Cazadores Tequila Blanco. Pick fruits that complement each other with sweet and tart notes! For best flavors look for seasonal fruits as well. Fresh citrus is the way to go whenever possible. Most any fruit flavored sparkling water that is lightly sweetened works well with this cocktail recipe. On this day I used a pink cranberry sparkling juice cocktail. Gather your favorite glasses for serving! And most important, share with friends!

Cazadores Tequila Blanco, with it’s natural light flavor, makes it ideal for mixing. Cazadores a premium tequila made from 100% blue agave from the Highlands of Mexico, has more citrus, floral and sweet notes than other tequilas. One of my fondest memories of Tequila Cazadores is sharing time with my family in Mexico. Simple Mexican botanas(snacks) paired with a tall shot of Tequila Cazadores for sipping. Those simple moments are the memories you take with you for a lifetime. Time spent with familia.

If you would like to add a little more sweetness to the recipe, I would suggest mixing in some agave nectar or simple syrup. Any lightly sweetened, fruit flavored, sparkling water can be substituted for the cranberry.
