About
This cocktail was created by Jordan Hughes (@highproofpreacher). Reposado tequila and passionfruit start things off bright and tropical, followed by the earthy, bittersweet weight of a very generous Cynar float. At least, it is supposed to be a float. Mine immediately sank into the drink, so the dramatic layered look did not exactly go according to plan, but the flavors still worked beautifully together. The mint adds a fresh aromatic layer against all that agave, fruit, and bitterness.Cheers y’all!
