Think of the Tequila Soleil as a Negroni (with tequila) meets a spritz (with beer) meets that wonderful feeling of relief only an ice cold drink on a hot summer afternoon can bring. The vermouth - use blanc if you have it, sweet red if you don't - tempers the drink, but the key to a perfectly balanced Tequila Soleil lies in how you build it. Namely, you'll want to add the ice last. This small switch in technique has a big impact, keeping the beer from deflating on impact and thus retaining a bubbly, refreshing vibe for much longer.
