Tequila Old Fashioned

Tequila Old Fashioned

Since I’m not making cocktails during my pregnancy, I’ve invited some fellow bloggers and cocktail enthusiasts to write guest posts and share their recipes. Today’s guest blogger is Instagrammer Morgan Hufstetler!

This past fall I moved to Florida and wanted an Old Fashioned, however it was 85 degrees outside and well, tequila sounded more refreshing. But don’t wait till fall to drink this refreshingly boozy concoction. It’s a great little drink that doesn’t require too many steps and is extremely well-balanced. The bitterness of the Campari is offset by the elderflower liqueur and the Ancho Reyes and tequila pair nicely together.
