Avendesora
A bright and earthy tequila cocktail recipe.
Ingredients
- 1½ oz tequila reposado (Corzo is an incredible brand)
- ½ oz orange liqueur/triple sec
- ½+ oz freshly-squeezed orange juice
- 2+ oz lemon tonic water (see note for substitution)
- fresh sage
Instructions
- Add the tequila & 2-3 fresh sage leaves to a cocktail shaker.
- Lightly muddle the sage with a muddler or the back of a spoon, just enough to bruise the leaves.
- Add ice, the orange liqueur, and orange juice to the shaker.
- Shake well, about 30 seconds.
- Pour into a lowball glass that's filled with ice
- Top off the glass with the lemon tonic water & stir to mix.
- Garnish with a sage leaf and slice of orange.
Notes
If you can't find lemon tonic water, you can use regular tonic water and 1/2 oz of fresh lemon juice.
