Ranch Water:
The Refreshing Texan Treasure
We love sharing a good drink recipe!
Hello to all the beverage enthusiasts out there! At Hangover Street, while we pride ourselves on introducing top-tier wines and spirits to restaurants and wholesalers, we also love sharing a good drink recipe from time to time. Today, we're taking a trip to West Texas to uncover the secrets of a light and refreshing cocktail: Ranch Water.
A Texan Tradition:
Ranch Water isn't just a drink; it's a reflection of Texan spirit. Light, crisp, and perfect for beating the heat, it's a staple in many bars across the Lone Star State.
The recipe for some awesome Ranch Water:
Ingredients:
At its heart, Ranch Water is simple, but every component plays a crucial role. You'll need:
- Quality Tequila (and we have some splendid choices at Hangover Street!)
- Sparkling mineral water
- Fresh lime juice
Crafting Your Ranch Water:
For a single serving:
- Fill a tall glass with ice.
- Add 2 oz of your preferred tequila.
- Squeeze the juice of half a lime into the glass.
- Top up with sparkling mineral water.
- Stir gently to combine, garnish with a lime wedge, and there you have it – a refreshing Ranch Water!
Food Pairing:
Given its light and citrusy profile, Ranch Water pairs brilliantly with spicy foods, grilled meats, or even Tex-Mex favorites. If you’re a restaurant looking to spice up your cocktail menu, this drink is both a nod to tradition and a burst of freshness.
Customize and Experiment:
While the classic Ranch Water is undeniably delightful, feel free to play around. Some add a dash of orange or grapefruit juice for a tangy twist, while others drop in a slice of jalapeño for an extra kick!
With Hangover Street by your side, sourcing the perfect tequila for this drink is a breeze. Whether you're a cozy neighborhood diner or an upscale restaurant, introducing Ranch Water to your patrons guarantees a sip of Texan heritage.
