This is not your average Pink Lemonade, from Cantina OK!
Bright fruit flavours and soda make this tequila drink — playfully titled ‘Pink Lemonade’ — from Sydney’s Cantina OK! sing.
Ever since Cantina OK! arrived on the Sydney bar scene, they’ve been putting out a carefully considered cocktail of the week. There’s always some interesting technique applied to it, and an interesting ingredient — but always, always with a focus on what is delicious.
So should you be able to snag a spot at what is one of the country’s smallest bars — it occupies an old car parking space, and that’s about the size of it — it makes sense to give the special a go (perhaps take their twist on a Margarita for a spin first).
We recently took that very advice and came away with the recipe for this neat example of a great tequila drink.
