Ingredients

  • 5 cups water divided
  • 1 ½ cups white sugar
  • 1 ½ cups freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 ½ cups Blanco tequila
  • ice cubes
  • fresh lemon wedges for garnish

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring 1 ½ cups water and the sugar to a boil. Stir continuously to help the sugar dissolve. When the sugar has fully dissolved, remove the saucepan from the heat and cool. This mixture is called simple syrup.

  • Stir well to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with lemon wedges and enjoy!
