Renewed Revival

Your holiday party cocktail just arrived… recipe below.

Today I’m working with my friends at @thelostexplorer to make a seasonal margarita riff. They make some incredible agave-based spirits and also have a commitment to sustainability which inspired this spiced pineapple syrup I used for this cocktail. This syrup uses every part of the pineapple along with some fall spices and is essential in this recipe and figured it would be a great fit with the brightness of the tequila and the smokiness of the mezcal rinse.

Give this one a try, cheers y’all!

Ahumado Old Fashioned

Give me an Old Fashioned, but make it with a smoky tequila 🥃

I’m excited to introduce y’all to the newest offering from - Patrón Ahumado - and make a classic Old Fashioned with it. #patronahumado is made in small batches using a low and slow roasting technique of the piñas underground with mesquite for at least seven days. Agave is then crushed using the unique 100% tahona wheel distillation process. The reposado tastes sweet, smoky, and oaky with notes of black pepper and hints of vanilla and caramel — it takes a classic Old Fashioned to a new level but can also just be enjoyed neat or on the rocks. If you’re a fan of smoked spirits, you need to get your hands on this bottle ASAP.

Cheers y’all.
