This one’s a classic for a reason. The Cantarito hails from Jalisco, Mexico—tequila country—and has long been a go-to for sunny afternoons and street-side celebrations. At Adiõs, José Medina Camacho keeps it traditional with tequila, citrus, and a splash of Squirt soda, making this fizzy favorite as easy-drinking as it is refreshing.
Here’s how to make it at home.
