Hot Lips Cocktail
Recipe developed with my friend, Michael Cecconi, the @themobilemixologist.
Serves 1
Ingredients
1 ½ ounces Hibiscus-Infused Blanco Tequila (see below)
½ ounce St. Germain
½ ounce Ancho Reyes Chili Verde Liqueur
¾ ounce fresh lime juice
Tajin
Lime wheel (garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the glass: Using a cut lime, run it around the rim of a rocks glass. Place some of the tajin on a small plate. Dip the rim of the glass in tajin to coat lightly.
Combine the tequila, St. Germain, Ancho Reyes Chili Verde Liqueur and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. When ready, add plenty of ice and shake for 5 seconds. Place a block of ice in the tajin-rimmed rocks glass. Strain into the glass. Garnish with the lime wheel.
Hibiscus-Infused Tequila
1/2 ounce hibiscus flowers
1 cup blanco tequila
Place the hibiscus and tequila in a glass jar, shake periodically, and let sit for 24 hours. Strain.
