Looks like it's going to be a hot summer in Toronto, and there's no better way to enjoy the sunshine while staying cool than sitting on a patio with a drink in hand, like this Monterita cocktail from Montecito Restaurant in Toronto. The hotspot in the Entertainment District just came out with a new summer cocktail menu and weekly specials that include $ 6 pints and $ 8 cocktails during Director's Cut hours. If you can't find a spot on the patio, invite some friends over and make this tequila cocktail at home.
