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

For the watermelon T & T’s:

For the tropical T & T’s:

3. Add a fresh mint leaf to each ice tray hole and divide the muddled pineapple over the mint.

For the cucumber cooler T & T’s:

4. Add a quartered cucumber piece into each ice tray hole and divide the lime juice over the cucumber slices. *Chef’s Tip: Rolling the lime before squeezing will produce maximum juice!

For the grapefruit T & T’s:

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.

Add a shot of PATRON Reposado Tequila to each of the tropical or cucumber cooler T & T’s. To finish, pour ½ a cup of tonic water into each glass.

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