La Sirena Cocktail (The Mermaid)

 We had a version of this at the Round Cantina on Butler Street from their cocktail taps, and loved it. This is my version, because they didn't give me the actual recipe! It's like a souped up Paloma!

4 oz grapefruit juice 

2 oz tequila (or less!)

2 oz Aperol

1/2 oz lemon juice

5 cc (1 tsp) agave syrup

Stir and serve over lots of ice.

We did this as a pitcher for a party. Popped it in the fridge to chill and brought it out in an insulated growler for serving. (Chill growler in the freezer night before if you can!)

28 oz grapefruit juice

14 oz tequila (I think 10 oz might be wiser!)

14 oz Aperol

3.5 oz lemon juice

2 - 4 tablespoons Agave syrup

So this makes close to a half gallon, 7 drinks or so.

This is NOT the Tom Cruise pound cake version. This is a more traditional style coconut cake.   Ingredients (Volume + Grams) White cake mix...
