Tequila Oasis

The Salt Rim: Begin by lightly moistening just half of the outer rim of a Highball glass with a wedge of fresh grapefruit. Dip the moistened edge delicately into high-quality flaky sea salt. A half-rim allows the guest to choose whether they want the savory salt contrast with each sip.

Ice the Glass: Fill the prepared Highball glass to the brim with fresh, crystal-clear ice cubes to keep the finished drink perfectly frosty.

Shake the Base: In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine 50ml of premium Reposado Tequila and 15ml of freshly squeezed pink grapefruit juice. Shake vigorously for about 10 seconds to thoroughly chill and aerate the spirit and citrus.

Strain and Pour: Use a Hawthorne strainer to pour the chilled, frothy mixture directly over the fresh ice in the salt-rimmed Highball glass.

The Sparkling Oasis: Gently pour ice-cold Seven Dates Original to top off the glass (approximately 120ml). Pour slowly down the inside of the glass to preserve the delicate, natural effervescence of the soft drink.

The Gentle Integration: Insert a bar spoon down the side of the glass and pull the bottom liquids upward in a single, smooth motion. Be careful not to disturb the salt rim.

The Garnish: Elegantly slide a fresh half-slice of pink grapefruit down the inside edge of the glass, or perch it beautifully on the rim. Serve immediately.
