Joyful Expression
One of my favorite pregame/starter cocktails to drink is the Paloma. Although the recipe isn’t exactly a true Paloma, I believe these readily made ingredients give a beautiful twist on one of the most beloved classic cocktails. Not to mention Lobos 1707 Reposado tequila gives off subtle herbal vanilla notes that does a delicate dance with the bitterness of grapefruit.
The warm spices and black pepper notes fill in the blank spaces that are necessary to complete a flavorful beverage. I chose to use a vapor bubble as a garnish, because I believe every great cocktail must give off full sensory experiences.
The name Joyful Expressions was inspired by two things: My name Joy—the creator of the beverage makes people happy. The elements in this beverage to create a delicious tequila cocktail. This cocktail is flavorful, refreshing, and easy to shake up. Although the glassware and garnish are a bit contemporary. The ingredients are familiar and approachable for a pre-game starter cocktail. Easy to find ingredients and even easier to create.

California Candy
inspiration from the vibrant street food culture of Southern California. Much like the street vendors who line the bustling streets of Los Angeles and San Diego, this cocktail offers a tantalizing blend of flavors that reflects the region’s diverse culinary influences. The sweet and juicy mango base pays homage to the abundance of fresh tropical fruits available in the area, while the kick of chili pepper adds a fiery twist, reminiscent of the bold and spicy street snacks served by local vendors. Sipping on California Candy is like taking a flavorful journey through the sun-soaked streets of Southern California, capturing the essence of its street food scene in every delightful sip. Since we’re normally pregaming with friends and in a party setting, this drink is served in a plastic cup because nobody has time to clean up after a bunch a people. Also, it stays consistent with the street vendor theme as street fruit is also served in plastic cups. Perfect for any pregame!!
