Crème de cassis is a deep red liqueur made from black currants, and it gives this drink its reddish color. The ginger beer makes this drink bubbly and refreshing, the perfect sip on a warm evening.

Bright, bubbly and refreshing to drink, the El Diablo combines tequila with rich, sweetly acidic crème de cassis, fresh lime juice and sharply spiced ginger beer. To ensure a balanced cocktail, use a ginger beer with a low sugar content rather than a more sugar-forward ginger ale.
