I used Espolón reposado and Fever Tree ginger beer and this was really an excellent refreshing drink. The subtle fruitiness from the Chambord helps round it out nicely.

Wonderful and falvourful cocktail. Ginger beer add a touch of spice to this tequila citrus cocktail. Would be wonderful anytime, but especially nice relaxing in a warm afternoon.
