Method
Preparation
Prepare the Glass
Begin by rimming your cocktail glass with smoked sea salt. To do this, rub a lime wedge around the rim of the glass, then dip the rim into a plate of smoked sea salt. Set the glass aside.
Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, combine the Ancho Reyes Chili Liqueur, tequila, fresh lime juice, and agave syrup. Add a cup of ice cubes to the shaker.
Shake
Secure the lid on the cocktail shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well chilled.
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into the prepared glass filled with fresh ice. You can also serve it straight up without ice if preferred.
Garnishing
Garnish
Garnish your Ancho-rita with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass and sprinkle a little smoked paprika on top for extra smokiness.
