The success of this cocktail is as much about the quality of your tequila as it is about your choice of lemonade. Made well and this Squeeze is zesty, balanced and very refreshing.

As the review says, highly recommend you use a good tequila because it's flavor is very forward. As John said, not a very sweet cocktail. Think of it as a dry, tequila and citrus forward "Margarita", and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. For those of us that shy away from sweeter cocktails, this fits the bill perfectly.

OMG, this was great. I only use reposado tequila, but it was wonderful. You could taste the tequila, but it was not overpowering. Not overly sweet like the margaritas, but refreshingly dry.

Fruity, yet balanced and well-weighted with just enough spirituous bite. Rum acts as a base while gin lightens and lifts.
