Description: The Crimson Agave Old Fashioned is a tantalizing twist on the classic cocktail, featuring the bold essence of tequila infused with a spiced cranberry syrup. This drink is a perfect harmony of warmth and tang, embodying the spirit of festive cheer with every sip. The cranberry adds a vibrant hue and a subtle tartness, while the spices provide a cozy undertone, making it an ideal companion for cool evenings. Ingredients: - 2 oz reposado tequila - 0.5 oz spiced cranberry syrup (recipe below) - 2 dashes Angostura bitters - Orange peel, for garnish - Fresh cranberries, for garnish (optional) Spiced Cranberry Syrup: - 1 cup fresh cranberries - 1 cup water - 1 cup sugar - 1 cinnamon stick - 2 star anise - 3 cloves To make the Spiced Cranberry Syrup: 1. Combine cranberries, water, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves. 2. Add the cinnamon stick, star anise, and cloves. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the cranberries have burst and the mixture thickens slightly. 3. Remove from heat and let it cool. Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve, discarding the solids. 4. Store the syrup in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. To assemble the Crimson Agave Old Fashioned: 1. In an Old Fashioned glass, combine the spiced cranberry syrup and Angostura bitters. 2. Add the tequila and stir gently to mix. 3. Fill the glass with a large ice cube and stir until chilled. 4. Express the orange peel over the drink by twisting it to release its oils, then drop it into the glass. 5. Garnish with fresh cranberries for an added festive touch, if desired. 6. Serve in an Old Fashioned glass and enjoy.
