Instructions

Let your taste buds take a walk on the wild side with this innovative twist on a classic margarita, featuring the unique addition of ramps, a wild onion that brings a garlicky zest, paired with the subtle heat of peppers. This cocktail combines the earthiness of roasted ramps and the spicy kick of peppers with the smoothness of tequila, creating a bold, flavorful experience. **Ingredients:** - 2 oz tequila blanco - 1 oz fresh lime juice - 0.5 oz agave syrup - 4-6 wild ramps - 1 small jalapeño or serrano pepper (adjust based on your heat preference) - Ice - Sea salt and a small amount of ground roasted ramps for the rim - Garnish: Lime wheel and a grilled ramp **Instructions:** 1. **Prepare the Ramps:** Begin by gently washing the ramps. Separate the bulbs from the leaves. Lightly brush the bulbs with olive oil and place them on a hot grill or sauté pan until they are charred on the outside, about 1-2 minutes per side. Reserve the leaves for garnishing. 2. **Infuse the Tequila:** Slice the grilled ramp bulbs and jalapeño (or serrano pepper) thinly. Combine them with tequila in a jar, seal it, and let it infuse in a cool, dark place for about 24-48 hours. Strain the infused tequila through a mesh strainer or cheesecloth to remove all solids. 3. **Prepare the Glass:** Mix sea salt with a small amount of ground roasted ramps. Use a lime wedge to wet the rim of a rocks glass and dip it into the salt-ramp mixture to coat the edge evenly. 4. **Mix the Cocktail:** In a shaker, combine 2 oz of the ramp and pepper-infused tequila, fresh lime juice, agave syrup, and a handful of ice. Shake well until the outside of the shaker feels cold. 5. **Serve:** Fill the prepared rocks glass with fresh ice and strain the cocktail into the glass. Garnish with a lime wheel and a grilled ramp leaf. The Wild Ramp Margarita Fusion offers a uniquely savory twist on a beloved classic, making it perfect for those looking to explore adventurous flavors. The combination of roasted ramps and the heat of peppers infused in tequila creates a complex, deeply satisfying cocktail that's as intriguing as it is delicious.
