Jalisco

This tequila sour with orange juice and grenadine sounds a lot like a precursor to the Tequila Sunrise, so I created a Jalisco that is a lime-and-orange tequila sour balanced with rich simple and flavored with a touch of habanero shrub. In place of grenadine, I reached for the Campari that was already on our supply list. It makes for a far more balanced “sink” than grenadine and the visual is stunning!

INGREDIENTS

1½ oz. tequila
¾ oz. orange juice
½ oz. lime juice
½ oz. simple syrup
Habanero shrub, to taste
5 drops saline solution
¼ oz. sink of Campari

Garnish: none


ABV LEVEL

Combine all ingredients but the Campari in a shaker and add ice. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds. Double strain into prepared glass. Using the back of a barspoon set against the inside of the glass, carefully pour the quarter-ounce of Campari to the bottom of the glass.
