INGREDIENTS:
- 1 ½ oz. Exotico® Blanco Tequila
- 2 Juiced Limes (2 oz. or ¼ cup Juice)
- ½ Juiced Oranges (1 oz. or 2 Tbsp of Juice)
- 1 tablespoon Pure Maple Syrup
- 2 oz. Club Soda (Flavored as desired-orange or lime would be great)
- Kosher Salt
- Lime Wedges
- Crushed Ice
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Rim a frosty glass with Kosher salt.
- Pour tequila, lime juice, orange juice, and maple syrup into the prepared glass over crushed ice.
- Stir well.
- Top off mixture with club soda and lime wedge as desired.
*Note: Flakes of Kosher salt are large enough to adhere to the rim of the glass nicely, without making a huge mess.
*Note: Plays Well With Butter prefers unflavored club soda because it doesn’t compete with the freshness of the fresh citrus juice. Flavored is always an option though.
