Instructions

Embark on a daring flavor odyssey with the Aztec Eclipse, a cocktail that marries the smoky depth of mezcal with the untamed heat of Ancho Reyes chili liqueur and the exotic sweetness of tamarind. A perfumed hint of lavender syrup brings an unexpected floral twist, while fresh lime juice grounds this audacious concoction with its essential citrus zest. A touch of salinity with black lava salt on the rim complements the drink's boldness, making for a stunning, complex cocktail that's both wild and sophisticated. Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal - 1/2 oz Ancho Reyes chili liqueur - 1 oz Tamarind paste or puree - 1/2 oz Fresh lime juice - 1/4 oz Lavender syrup - A pinch of smoked paprika (for garnish) - Black lava salt (for rimming the glass) - Fresh lavender sprig (for garnish, optional) - Ice cubes Instructions: 1. Rim a chilled old-fashioned glass with black lava salt by running a lime wedge around the edge and dipping it into the salt. 2. In a shaker, combine the mezcal, Ancho Reyes chili liqueur, tamarind paste, fresh lime juice, and lavender syrup. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients. 4. Strain the mixture into the prepared old-fashioned glass filled with fresh ice cubes. 5. Sprinkle a pinch of smoked paprika over the top of the drink for an added layer of smokiness. 6. Garnish with a fresh sprig of lavender, if available, or a lime wheel. This audacious Aztec Eclipse serves as a testament to the fearless spirit of innovation, offering an unforgettable tasting experience that pushes the boundaries of traditional mixology.
