Tequila-Watermelon Refresco

We are Summer chillinโ€™

My little brother is visiting from New York, our entire familia is together, we are feasting and sipping cocktails, life is good.

Last night everyone stopped by for dinner and I knew I had to whip up something summery, refreshing and spiked with tequila.

We are tequila loving peeps.

This fizzy watermelon cocktail spiked with tequila is finished off with a splash of soda for a refreshing summer cocktail.

Refresco is the Spanish word for soft drink, soda.ย
