Advice and variants

Just substitute carbonated water or lemon-lime soda for the tequila and orange liqueur to create alcohol-free versions.

Try blueberries or raspberries for a great substitute for blackberries.

Either add a piece of jalapeño to the mix or garnish the glass with salt and chili powder to make your tequila more hot.

Blackberries will release much more flavor when mushed after macerating with sugar for one hour.

If you’re hankering for something sweet, add a little simple syrup or agave syrup.

Taste your drink always before adding more or fewer ingredients; balance is really vital. It basically boils down to personal taste; whether acidity or sweetness dominates.

Having fun!
