Sweet, fruity, and herbal tequila cocktails to impress

We’re loving the embrace of tequila cocktails for romance season, and these recipes from Maestro Dobel Tequila include classic flavors like strawberry and orange liqueur, but also some lesser seen ingredients like rhubarb bitters, prickly pear syrup, and grated nutmeg.
