#FeelGoodFriday #Drinkspiration - Taurus Birthday Cocktails

What day is it again?! 🤣 I think it’s Feel Good Friday!! This week I created two custom drinks for two very special Tauruses - my brother Shawn and my co-worker Krystle. For Shawn, we have the El Toro - a vodka- based take on a Mojito with a watermelon twist. El Toro - the bull because my brother is ALLLLL Taurus. And for Krystle, I made a Spicy Mamita - a pineapple margarita with a kick of jalapeño because Krystle is sweet but she does come with a little spice. 😉

Here are the recipes. Tag me if you try them. Enjoy!!

El Toro

  • 1.5 ozs Tito’s Vodka

  • 1.5 ozs of watermelon juice ( you can crush watermelon pieces or buy watermelon juice.)

  • Juice from half of a lime

  • 1/2 oz of agave or simple syrup - A few mint leaves


Crush the mint leaves in the bottom of a shaker really well. Squeeze the lime juice into the shaker. Fill the vodka and watermelon juice. Top with agave or simple syrup (the full ounce or less if you want it less sweet). Fill the shaker with ice. Shake for abt 30 seconds. You can either pour all of it into a glass or stain the mint leaves and ice out.

==========================================

Spicy Mamita

  • 1.5 ozs of tequila (about a shot and a half)

  • 1.5 ozs of pineapple juice

  • 1/2 oz of agave - Juice from 1/2 lime

  • Slice of jalepeno pepper about 1/2 inch thick

Blend everything together in a small blender (like a protein shake electric blender) so that the jalepeno can be liquified. Pour that mixture in a shaker with ice and shake for abt 30 seconds. Pour everything in a glass OR strain into empty glass with no ice.
