DÔA Miami Beach Restaurant Creates Special Cocktail For National Tequila Day

Sensei Serenity Gives The Celebrated Liquor A LatAsian Twist

It’s always nice when a restaurant or bar recognizes one of the many days devoted to specific food and drinks, and DÔA Miami Beach has done just that for National Tequila Day.

It has created a special cocktail for the occasion called the Sensei Serenity.

The brainchild of DÔA’s mixologist Josue “Josh” Gonzalez, it gives tequila a LatAsian twist. The refreshing cocktail combines Casa Noble tequila, cucumber juice, honeydew melon, lime juice and shiso leaves for an enlightening drinking experience.

National Tequila Day is Monday, July 24.

Here’s the ingredients and recipe for the Sensei Serenity if you want to make it at home. Better yet, let Gonzalez or one of the bartenders at DÔA make it for you on Collins Ave.
