Making this tequila daisy recipe for a crowd

This is such an easy martini recipe to make for a crowd! I recommend placing a bottle of club soda next to the pitcher so when people serve themselves they can add a splash of club soda. This ensures that the club soda stays fresh and you get that fizz. Here's how to make 10 batches of this cocktail.
  1. In a large pitcher, add 2.5 cups of tequila, 5 oz triple sec (or Grand Marnier), 5 oz citrus juice, and 5 oz simple syrup. Stir and chill in the fridge until you're ready to serve.
  2. To serve 1 cocktail, pour 3.5 oz into a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake until chilled and strain into a martini glass. Add a splash of club soda and cheers!
