Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Take a cocktail glass and moisten the rim with a lime wedge. Dip the rim into a plate with Tajín seasoning to coat it evenly.

  2. 2

    Make Cucumber Purée

    In a blender, blend fresh cucumber until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove any pulp, yielding a smooth cucumber purée.

  3. 3

    Mix the Cocktail

    In a cocktail shaker, combine the Palomo Mezcal, cucumber purée, fresh lime juice, habañero syrup, and agave nectar. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds.

  4. 4

    Strain and Serve

    Strain the mixture into the prepared cocktail glass over fresh ice. Garnish with a cucumber slice or a lime wheel if desired.
