Finest Call Premium Margarita Mix, 1 Liter, 3 Pack

Finest Call is a bar-supply brand, stocked in restaurants and hotel bars where a margarita has to taste the same at six o'clock as it does at closing time. This is that working bottle, sold here as a three pack of 1 liter bottles for people who batch in volume: a catered party, a long weekend, a home bar that goes through mixers steadily.

Compared with the jug mixes aimed at the grocery aisle, this one tastes rounder and smoother, sweet and tangy in roughly equal measure with a clear lime kick rather than a sharp pucker. The bottles use the brand's long-neck pour spout and cap, which is built for free-pouring a measure quickly without drips.

To use it: pour over ice with tequila and salt the rim, blend with ice for frozen service, or fold in a fruit puree for a flavored version. It also stands alone over ice as a non-alcoholic limeade-style cooler.
