Notes

For a fruity variation, muddle a few raspberries or strawberries in the shaker before adding the other ingredients. You can substitute lime juice with lemon juice for a tangier twist or use agave syrup instead of sugar for a natural sweetener. If prepping for a party, store mixed cocktails in a pitcher in the fridge and keep them chilled until ready to serve. Enjoy responsibly!
