Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 oz Tequila
- 4 oz Coca-Cola
- 1 whole Lime
- 6 pieces Ice cubes
- 1 tsp Salt (optional, for rim)
Instructions
If you want a salted rim, take a rocks or highball glass and rub a wedge of lime around the rim. Dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it thinly.
Fill the glass with ice cubes, about 6 pieces or as much as desired.
Pour 2 oz of tequila over the ice.
Juice the lime into the glass, squeezing out as much juice as possible. Be sure to avoid getting seeds in the drink.
Top the drink with 4 oz of Coca-Cola, pouring slowly to preserve the fizz.
Give the mixture a gentle stir to combine the ingredients evenly.
Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim or a slice inside the glass for added flair.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Mexicola!
