El Sueno
A vanilla based tequila cocktail inspired by our trip to Mexico City!! It’s a fun spin on a margarita and honestly – it’s life altering!! Also very easy to make in batches!
- 4 ounces tequila blanco
- 4 ounces freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract if you can’t find paste)
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 3-4 dashes bitters
- pinch of salt and orange zest twist for garnish
-
Place all ingredients in a cocktail shaker, give a good stir to mix honey and vanilla paste. Fill cocktail shaker 3/4 full with ice and shake for 10 seconds. Strain into chilled coupe glass. Garnish with a lime or orange twist.
** Can also be served over ice with a splash of soda water and can easily be made into batch cocktails for a party**
