Instructions

Dive into a sensory experience that ignites the palate with the Fuego Rojo Eclipse, a bright red cocktail that combines the smoky depth of mezcal with the fiery kick of chili. This innovative creation is not just a drink, but a daring adventure in a glass. Glass Type: Highball Glass Ingredients: - 2 oz Mezcal (choose one with a bold, smoky profile) - 1 oz Fresh Lime Juice - 1/2 oz Agave Syrup - 3/4 oz Chile-Infused Grenadine (homemade or store-bought; to add both sweetness and fiery red color) - 2 Dashes of Hot Sauce (adjust based on preferred spice level) - Club Soda (to top up) - Ice Cubes Garnish: - 1 Red Chili Pepper (for garnish, slit from the bottom to fit on the rim of the glass) - 1 Lime Wheel (for an additional splash of color and a hint of citrus) - A pinch of Smoked Salt (to sprinkle over the cocktail for a smoky kick) Instructions: 1. Begin by preparing your chile-infused grenadine if not using a pre-made version. Simply steep fresh or dried chiles in your standard grenadine syrup for a few hours or overnight, then strain. Adjust the steeping time depending on how spicy you want it. 2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the mezcal, fresh lime juice, agave syrup, and chile-infused grenadine. Add a couple of dashes of your preferred hot sauce to bring the heat. 3. Fill the shaker with ice, firmly secure the lid, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds or until the shaker feels ice-cold. 4. Take your highball glass and fill it with fresh ice cubes. 5. Strain the cocktail mixture into the glass over the ice, ensuring a smooth pour. 6. Top up the cocktail gently with club soda to add a refreshing fizz without diluting the rich flavors. 7. Garnish with a slit red chili pepper fit snugly onto the rim of the glass, a lime wheel for a pop of color, and a final sprinkle of smoked salt to enhance the smoky notes of the mezcal. 8. Stir gently before the first sip to mix the smokey, spicy, and refreshing layers. The Fuego Rojo Eclipse is a testament to bold flavors and daring mixology, perfectly balanced for those looking to explore the fiery depths of artisanal cocktails. Enjoy responsibly and let the adventure begin!
