Celebrate Noche Buena with these striking tequila cocktails

Depending on where you are in the world, the big party for Christmas might be held on December 25 — or it might be on December 24, as people get together to slide into Christmas together. That’s true here in Germany, and it’s the case for many Latinx people too who get together to celebrate Noche Buena with plenty of good food and good company.

If you have plans to celebrate on Christmas Eve, then why not try a tequila-themed cocktail? The brand LALO tequila has shared some seasonal recipes including a simple but delicious highball specifically for Noche Buena, adding festive touches like rosemary and pomegranate to a base of blanco tequila and tonic water. There’s also a touch of maraschino liqueur and some bitters in there for extra interest and flavor, making this the perfect light and sparkling way to welcome the festivities.
