Time to ring the bell for margarita season with a summer Pantalones cocktail
Summertime is here and that means it is margarita season. This Pantalones cocktail is the way that Matthew and Camila McConaughey are handling the fact that school is out for summer.
When that final school bell rings, the cheers can be heard far and wide. From not having to keep up with homework to complicated schedules, it can be time to celebrate. Even though that moment might be a kids’ dream, adults might need their own moment to unwind, with a cocktail.
Summer cocktails tend to be light, refreshing, and easily sippable. The classic margarita is a popular choice. The simple sour cocktail is bright, refreshing, and goes with almost any food. From tacos to burgers, that cocktail is constantly being poured.
Matthew and Camila McConaughey, the dynamic duo behind Pantalones Organic tequila, are preparing for their own summer sipping. Fully ready to embrace school being out for summer, they are shaking up their version of the classic margarita cocktail.
As Matthew and Camila McConaughey said, “Margarita season begins this month and that means tequila consumption is on the rise. It’s also when our kids Summertime begins. We have no idea whether these two events are correlated but as proud parents of Pantalones Organic tequila and three kids, we have a hunch they are and say cheers to all our fellow Summer parents."
For adults who might need a libation to deal with the extra chaos in the house because the kids are not in the classroom, here’s how to make the Official Cocktail of Summer. The Pantalones Organic Margarita.
Ingredients
2 oz Pantalones Organic Tequila,
1 oz Organic Agave Nectar,
0.5 oz Organic Lime Juice,
Organic Lime Wheel (Garnish)
Instructions
Rim the edge of a rocks glass with a lime wedge, dip the rim in salt to coat like you’re taking a tip in the pool, and set aside. Add the Pantalones Organic Tequila, organic lime juice, and organic agave nectar to a shaker with ice. Shake until well-chilled. Strain over fresh ice into the prepared glass. Top your summer extravaganza with a lime wheel.
Even though no one is suggesting that this cocktail be enjoyed till anyone feels a little “dazed and confused,” a few moments to take a break, unwind from the summertime chaos, or otherwise embrace the distraction can be warranted. Just like kids need a break from the classroom, parents need a moment to themselves, too.
With the Official Cocktail of Summer in hand, an iconic phrase uttered in a classic movie serves its purpose. With school out for summer, everything will be “alright, alright, alright.”
