Yep. It’s that easy.

Remember, drink sensibly though and we mean that. Over-doing it is no fun at the time and it’s a total punish the day after so take it easy.

And just in case you’re wondering, yes, Casamigos Tequila is indeed the tequila co-owned by George Clooney and Rande Gerber, husband of Cindy Crawford. While we’re at it, George Clooney is the husband of Amal Clooney.
