Tequila
Prep time: 10 mins

A bottle of Don Julio tequila, two cocktails with lime wedges, a cocktail shaker set, a strainer, whole limes, and lime halves on a beige countertop.

Filled with vibrant colors and imbued with flavors of the desert, this Margarita riff could quench the thirst of any weary traveler.
