Ingredients
- 45 ml Tequila reposado
- 15 ml Crème de cassis
- 15 ml Lime juice
- 90 ml Ginger beer
- Garnish Lime wedge
Preparation
- Shake tequila, cassis and lime with ice.
- Strain into a highball glass over ice. Don't know how? Pour the drink through a strainer (or the built-in strainer on your shaker) to catch the ice and any solids.
