Ranch Water Cocktail

To make a Ranch Water cocktail, start by filling a highball glass with ice. Pour in 2 oz of tequila blanco, then add the juice of half a lime. Top off the drink with 12 oz of Topo Chico sparkling mineral water. Stir gently and garnish with a lime wedge for a refreshing finish.

If you're looking for a non-alcoholic version of a Ranch Water cocktail, you can substitute the tequila with a non-alcoholic tequila alternative or simply enjoy a lime and Topo Chico sparkling water mix. This way, you can still enjoy the refreshing flavors without the alcohol.

Ranch Water cocktails pair wonderfully with light and fresh foods. Consider serving them alongside tacos, ceviche, or a fresh salad. The citrusy and bubbly nature of the cocktail complements the flavors of these dishes perfectly.

To store leftover ingredients, keep any unused tequila in a cool, dark place, as it doesn't spoil. For limes, store them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh longer. If you have leftover Topo Chico, seal it tightly and refrigerate to maintain its carbonation.

If you can't find Topo Chico, you can substitute it with any high-quality sparkling mineral water or club soda. Just make sure it has a similar level of carbonation to maintain the refreshing qualities of the Ranch Water cocktail.
