Tips for On-the-Go Mixing:
Tip #1 – Take tequila along for the journey
Whether you’re flying or backpacking, be sure to pack your travel-friendly Hornitos bottles in a travel bag so the main cocktail ingredient – tequila – is easily accessible!
Tip #2 – Save room for citrus
Take a few minutes before you leave to pack some fresh fruit in a travel-safe bag – this will be a handy juice and/or garnish for your drink.
Tip #3 – Plan as you go
Grab extra mixers on your way to your final destination so you have all the ingredients you’ll need for a cocktail. Just purchase a premium ginger ale in the airport terminal or order a fresh-squeezed juice at breakfast.
