Grand Canyon Mule Drink Recipe

grand-canyon-mule-07When the ladies at 5 O’Clock Fashionistas contacted me to create a signature cocktail for my current state of Arizona, a few ideas immediately came to mind – limes and tequila were a must. I’ve lived in Arizona on and off for 7 years now and one thing I’ve learned is that Arizonans love their tequila and lime.

grand-canyon-mule-02I just recently made another tequila cocktail on my blog, so I did a lot of brainstorming and google-searching to come up with this Grand Canyon Mule recipe (you can thank my husband for the cheesy pun!).

grand-canyon-mule-03It’s a pretty easy recipe, and perfect for the mule-lovers out there. Enjoy!
