How to make large batch cocktails?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Batch cocktails are just large format drinks that you can make ahead of time and chill in the fridge so you can refill your glass as needed. Everything typically goes into a blender or pitcher, mixed up and then chilled. Just be sure to give it a stir before serving! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long do batch cocktails last?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’d make it fresh for that day unless we’re talking sangria. If it’s sangria, you can let it sit for a few days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What type of Tequila should I use? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Blanco Blanco Blanco when it comes to tequila and most cocktails. Typically, the lighter tequilas, which have not been aged in barrels as long, do not have as strong and intense flavors of caramel and or vanilla. They lean towards more refreshing lighter fruity flavors which go great to accent the contents in your cocktail. The Anejos and Repasados are more for sipping on their own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
