This tart tequila cocktail is made for summer. Though it’s perfect in a glass, a pitcher that fits 10 or 12 works just as well. Combining a light cucumber syrup with orange and tequila creates a refreshing cocktail for a pool day. Rimming the glass, as well as topping the drink with a grapefruit agave salt adds that perfect look and taste to impress your friends. The final addition? Candied ginger paired with a fresh slice of grapefruit.
