You could create a custom object for your button where you would have an attribute to store the index of the cell where the button is.

These would be the steps:

Crear a custom objet for your button.
Add a var to store the IndexPath of your cell.
In func CellForRowAtIndexPath set the index path of each cell to its button.
When button is tapped check for the index path inside it and get the cell using your table view and this index.
Change the color of your cell

That would do the job.

This answer is in swift 2.2.I have done this and is working fine for me,I think this should work for you:

func buttonClicked(sender:UIButton) {
    {
        let indexPath = NSIndexPath(forRow: sender.tag, inSection: 0)
        let cell = self.tableView.cellForRowAtIndexPath(indexPath)
        cell?.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()
    }
