Caesar Sangrita
Not to be confused with the well-known mixture of red wine, brandy and fruit …Sangrita offers a special Spanish flare. This cocktail includes the classic Mexican blend of orange juice, tomato juice and tequila. The OJ brightens up the cocktail and adds a sweet-sour citrus hit. It pairs beautifully with some tequila, making it taste unlike anything you’ve tried before.
