Margarita
This fresh old classic can be made in mere minutes. Simply shake 1 oz Cointreau, 2 oz tequila, and 1 oz of lime juice with crushed ice. Then strain into a chilled glass, and serve with a wedge of lime.
Daiquiri
To make this beautiful cocktail simply mix 2 oz white rum, 1 oz lime juice, and 3/4 oz syrup! For added flavor you can add some fresh strawberries or summer berries.
Dark and Stormy
While the last two are perfect for a hot and sunny day, here’s a cocktail that’s a little more warming. You can make it into a large punch bowl for a whole garden full of guests or just make a simple glass for yourself. All you have to do is mix one part Dark Rum with two parts ginger beer. Garnish with lime.
Sidecar
This French-based classic has a touch of quality about it. Simply mix 2 oz Cognac, 3/4 oz Cointreau, and 3/4 lemon juice. Serve with orange peel.
