Desayuno En La Ciudad
This is NOT a Tequila Sunrise…
Cristalino Tequilas are taking over Mexico as one of the most popular styles of tequila in Mexico… and with reason. They’re smooth, bright, and lend themselves perfectly to cocktails.
Today I’m making a cocktail inspired by @limantourmx, one of the World’s 50 Best Bars (@50bestbars) which uses @dobeltequila, the first ever Cristalino Tequila. I’m here to show you it’s possible to pay homage to a cocktail from one of the world’s best bars at home.
Their recipe calls for red bell peppers, morita chili (a type of smoked jalapeño like a chipotle), tangerine and blood orange. I did my best to capture the flavor profiles here and added elements of a Garibaldi such as an aperitif and a frothy citrus juice to produce a fresh but balanced cocktail that hopefully did the original some justice.
Honestly though, you need to make this syrup, so comment ‘PEPPER’ if you want the recipe to the syrup in the video!
Cheers, y’all.
