Instructions

The Desert Mirage is a cocktail that blends the rich, herbal bitterness of amaro with the earthy smoothness of tequila, resulting in a complex and sophisticated aperitif. The drink is enhanced through the art of infusion, marrying the distinctive flavors of aromatic spices with the base spirits to create a truly unique experience. Served in a chilled coupe glass, it sets the tone for an evening of refined indulgence. Ingredients: - 1.5 oz tequila reposado, infused with cumin and coriander - 1 oz amaro (preferably a brand with citrus or herbal notes) - 0.5 oz fresh lime juice - 0.25 oz agave syrup - 2 dashes of orange bitters - Cumin and coriander seeds for infusion - Orange peel twist, for garnish - Edible flower, for garnish (optional) Infusion: - Begin by infusing your tequila reposado. Add one tablespoon of cumin seeds and one tablespoon of coriander seeds to a bottle of tequila. - Let the mixture sit in a cool, dark place for 48-72 hours, depending on your preference for the strength of the infusion. - Once infused to your liking, strain out the spices through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth and re-bottle the tequila. Cocktail Preparation: 1. Fill a mixing glass with ice. 2. Add the infused tequila reposado, amaro, fresh lime juice, agave syrup, and orange bitters. 3. Stir the ingredients together until well chilled. 4. Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass. 5. Garnish with a thin twist of orange peel, expressing the oils over the drink before adding. 6. Optionally, adorn with an edible flower for a touch of elegance. The Desert Mirage is a visually striking and flavor-packed aperitif that awakens the palate and prepares diners for a memorable meal ahead.
