Tips & Variations
- For a zero-proof version, skip the tequila and top up with more Perfy Fruit Punch.
- Swap basil for mint or cilantro for a different herbal note, and try a chili-salt rim if you like a little heat.
- Make a pitcher: multiply everything by 6, stir the rest together first, and add the Perfy last over ice so it keeps its fizz.
