Cactus Bite

Bright and tart on first sip, this shaken tequila cocktail hits with a sharp lemon backbone softened by orange liqueur and a honey-herbal note from Drambuie. It pours a pale, clear yellow and is refreshing and surprisingly complex for its short ingredient list, worth trying if you like citrus-forward, boozy sours with a subtle sweet-spice finish.

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Tequila
  • 2 oz Lemon Juice
  • 2 tsp Triple Sec Liqueur
  • 2 tsp Drambuie® Liqueur
  • 0.5 tsp Caster Sugar
  • 1 dash Aromatic Bitters

Instructions

  1. Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes.
  2. Add tequila, lemon juice, triple sec, and Drambuie to the shaker.
  3. Include superfine sugar and a dash of bitters to the mix.
  4. Shake the mixture vigorously until well chilled.
  5. Strain the mixture into a cocktail glass and serve immediately.
