Beer
Mexican beer is now fashionable in wine bars and pubs all over Europe. Top selling brands include the very pale, just fizzy Sol and the sweet Corona.
The best way to drink these beers is ice cold straight from the bottle. A sliver of line is pushed into the neck for extra flavour.
Tequila Sangria
2 handfuls ice
1 wine glass tequila
1 bottle dry red wine
juice of 2 oranges
juice of 1 lemon
1 orange sliced
1 lemon sliced
1 bottle sparkling water
Mix everything together well and serve in wine glasses
TIP: Tequila is best served really cold, so put the bottle in the freezer for 10 minutes. Put the glasses in to, they'll be beautifully frosted.
Tequila Sunrise
ice cubes
1 part tequila
4 parts orange juice
½ part grenadine
slice of orange to decorate
Half fill a tall slim glass with ice cubes. Pour over the tequila, then add orange juice. Stir to mix evenly. Add the grenadine, allowing it to spread, like cloud at sunrie through the drink. Decorate the glasses with the orange slivers and serve immediately
Margarita
2 parts lime or lemon juice
2 parts tequila
1 part Cointreau
ice cubes
salt to serve
Set a little of the lime or lemon juice to one side, then put the rest of the juice into a cocktail shaker or jug. Add the tequila, Cointreau and ice and mix thoroughly. Dampen the rims of the glasses with the reserved juice, then dip them in the salt to encrust the rims all the way round. Pour the margaritas into the glasses and serve immediately.
Mexican Peter
ice cubes
1 part Cherry Heering (or other cherry liquor)
3 parts tequila
maraschino cherries to decorate
Put the ice in a cocktail glass and pour over the liquor and the tequila. Stir well, decorate with cherries and serve immediately.
