Agave-Fruti-Chile cocktail with tequila
A cocktail born to honor typical flavors of our contemporary Mexico. Fruits and chili (chile-hot peppers) are everyday Mexican ingredients, and they are characteristic of this drink. We add some Hornitos® Plata Tequila, and we get a very Mexican drink, perfect to pair with one of our recipes or even all by itself!

This recipe serves 1 person and takes 5 minutes to prepare.

Ingredients

cocktail with tequila Hornitos Plata

  • 1.5 oz Hornitos® Plata Tequila
  • 30 g sliced strawberries
  • 60 g cherries and wild berries
  • 1 slice of Jalapeno Pepper (chili)
  • 60 g of pineapple, sliced, no skin
  • 1 oz agave honey
  • 0.5 lemon juice
  • 5 or 6 ice cubes
  • 15 g chile salt*

 


Decoration:

  • 1 slice of jalapeno pepper
  • 1 slice of lemon

Preparation

In a cocktail shaker, mix the fruit, chili, and pineapple and crush with mortar until all the juice is released. Add the agave honey, lemon juice, and Hornitos® Silver Tequila.

Shake with enough ice in the shaker until the walls freeze.

* Chile Salt: Blend 2 dry chilies (without seeds- cayenne pepper will do the trick) with 40 g of salt and let it all dry for 1 hour in the sun.

 

Presentation

Frost the rim of a shooter glass with the chile salt*.

Double strain the cocktail (Hawthorne strainer and fine mesh strainer) and serve in the shooter glass.

Cut a lemon (square shape it) and add a thin slice of jalapeño pepper at its center.

Enjoy!
