METHOD

1. Rub the rim of two tumbler glasses with a lime wedge and dip the rims in salt.

For the watermelon T & Ts:
2. Add a fresh mint leaf to each ice tray hole and divide the muddled watermelon over the mint. *Chefs Tip: To muddle the fruit, place in a jar and mash with a wooden spoon.

For the tropical T & Ts:
3. Add a fresh mint leaf to each ice tray hole and divide the muddled pineapple over the mint.

For the cucumber cooler T & Ts:
4. Add a quartered cucumber piece into each ice tray hole and divide the lime juice over the cucumber slices. *Chefs Tip: Rolling the lime before squeezing will produce maximum juice!

For the grapefruit T & Ts:
5. Add 1 quartered lime slice into each ice tray hole and divide the grapefruit juice over the lime slices.

To assemble:
6. Allow the ice cubes to chill in the freezer for at least 3-4 hours, or until set.

7. Divide the ice cubes of your chosen drink between the two prepared tumbler glasses. Add a shot (30ml) of PATRON Silver Tequila to each of the watermelon or grapefruit T & Ts. Add a shot of PATRON Reposado Tequila to each of the tropical or cucumber cooler T & Ts. To finish, pour a cup of tonic water into each glass.

8. Garnish each drink with its respective garnish. Serve with a snack platter and ENJOY!
