Cinco de Mayo has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean one ought to put away the tequila, especially fine tequila meant for either mixing or sipping neat (and definitely not meant for shooting). For a tequila-based cocktail that makes the margarita a distant dream, try the Strawberry Fields from Tequila Camarena.
Strawberry Fields
2 tablespoons fresh basil, roughly chopped
2 ounces Camarena Reposado
½ cup strawberry simple syrup*
2 ounces fresh lime juice
Splash of orange liqueur
6 sliced strawberries

Muddle basil and tequila in a cocktail shaker. Add strawberry simple syrup (recipe follows), lime juice, and orange liqueur. Fill with ice, shake, and strain into a highball glass over ice. Garnish with sliced strawberries on the rim and ribbons of basil mixed in the drink.
The Midnight Troubadour
Tough and timeless, this polo is built for the long ride. Featuring a crisp, non-collapsing collar and a rugged, stretchy fabric, it's the perfect shirt for any cowboy's wardrobe.
* Strawberry Simple Syrup: Combine 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water, and 4 – 5 strawberries, sliced in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 10 – 15 minutes. Cool the syrup and strain.
