Cocktail

Method

Prepare Glass

1

Chill glass

Place a rocks or coupe glass in the freezer for at least 5 minutes, or fill with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill it.

2

If you prefer a salted/tajín rim: rub a lime wedge around the glass rim, then dip the rim into a shallow dish of coarse salt or Tajín to lightly coat. Set the prepared glass aside.

Mix Cocktail

3

Add 2 oz Casamigos Blanco tequila, 1 oz Pallini Limoncello, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, 0.25 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz agave syrup into a cocktail shaker.

4

Fill the shaker with ice (about 6 oz / enough to reach just above the liquid).

5

Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the shaker feels very cold and well chilled.

6

Strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer (or the shaker strainer) into the chilled prepared glass over fresh ice if desired (rocks glass) or neat if serving up (coupe).

Garnish & Serve

7

Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and optionally a lemon twist for aromatic brightness. Express the lemon twist over the drink to release oils before dropping it in.

8

Serve immediately. Recommend enjoying chilled and sipping slowly to appreciate the interplay of tequila, lemoncello sweetness, citrus and agave.
