Siesta Cocktail Recipe

The Siesta Cocktail, created by Phil Ward in 2007 at New York's "Death & Company," combines tequila, Campari, grapefruit juice, lime juice, and simple syrup for a refreshing and slightly bitter twist. Inspired by the idea of relaxation, the drink offers a vibrant, citrusy balance with a hint of bitterness.
