Notes
If you want to make a big batch ahead of time, you can mix together the tequila, triple sec, lime juice and agave nectar. Then all you’ll have to do is add some of that mixture to a glass and then top them up with champagne.
Here are the ingredient amounts for 8 drinks:
- 12 ounces blanco tequila
