A classic Mexican cocktail, this Cantarito recipe features tequila and bubbly grapefruit soda, plus fresh grapefruit, orange, and lime. Cantaritos are a bit tart, a bit sweet, very refreshing, and oh-so-fun!

Ingredients

2 ounces blanco tequila
2 ounces fresh grapefruit juice
1 ounce fresh orange juice
½ ounce fresh lime juice
4 ounces grapefruit soda or more to taste (see note below)

Instructions

Add the tequila, grapefruit juice, orange juice, and lime juice, to a glass (see notes below) and stir to combine.
Fill the glass with ice and top with grapefruit soda.
Garnish with a slice of grapefruit, lime, and or orange, and enjoy.

Notes

Grapefruit soda: I like to use Fever-Tree Sparkling Pink Grapefruit for a more sophisticated flavor with smaller bubbles. For a more lighthearted flavor, Squirt, Fresca, or Jarritos are great options, with sweeter flavor and bigger bubbles.

If you prefer a sweeter drink, add a splash of simple syrup.
