Method

Cocktail

1

Combine and shake

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice (about 3/4 full). Add 2 oz Cazadores blanco tequila, 0.5 oz Cointreau, 0.5 oz ginger syrup, 1 oz pomegranate juice, 0.75 oz fresh lemon juice, and 3 dashes plum bitters to the shaker.

2

Shake

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the exterior of the shaker is very cold and well-aerated.

3

Strain

Double-strain the cocktail into a chilled coupe or a rocks glass filled with fresh ice (use a Hawthorne strainer and a fine mesh strainer to remove small ice shards and pulp).

Garnish & finish

4

Express a lemon twist over the drink to release oils, rub the peel around the rim if desired, and drop it into the glass (or float a lemon wheel on top). If using, sprinkle the teaspoon of pomegranate seeds on the surface for color and texture.

5

Serve immediately. Optional: For a slightly sweeter finish, add an additional 0.25 oz ginger syrup to taste or adjust lemon juice for brightness.
