Your Cowboy Carter Listening Party Needs This Beyhive Bellini

In the words of Queen Bey: “If you stay ready, you won’t have to get ready.” Trust us—you don’t want to be caught “getting ready” for the arrival of a new Beyoncé Knowles-Carter album. At Delish, we’re “stay ready” kind of people, so naturally we’re pouring up this bubbly Beyhive bellini as soon as the music drops. A blend of honey, reposado tequila, peach nectar, and lemon juice makes this cocktail the perfect balance of sweet and slightly tangy, while the bubbles keep it light and refreshing.

The tequila makes these a little boozier than your average bellini, so you’ll only need one glass to get the party started. If you’re not usually a tequila drinker, this would also work with vodka or whiskey…as long as you make Beyoncé proud and use your favorite Texas brand.
