The Fiore
| This drink started off as a shot that I used to make when I worked on the Lower East Side of NYC. I actually made it for three girls that were new to the neighborhood. It later grew into this that I put on the menu for each place I work. Ingredients : 1.25 oz Tequila .75oz Mezcal (smokier will need more sweetener) .75oz St. Germain .25oz Lemon Juice .25oz Simple Syrup (more if using A smokey Mezcal) 3-4 Healthy Dashes of Peychauds' Bitters (adds the pinkish Hue) Sparkling Wine to Top Directions : Combine all ingredients in a Shake Tin with ice, and shake well. Pour into a Double Rocks glass (using same ice; which I like to do). Top with Sparkling Wine, Zest a Lemon and express the peel to release the oils over the drink. Wipe the rim of the glass with the Zest, and use as a garnish. Sip and Enjoy. https://youtu.be/QTZKeWr-3NA [link] [comments] |
