Frostbite

The Margarita is the classic and most well known of all tequila drinks. After that, the range of tequila drinks is extremely sparse compared to the range of other cocktails that exist for the other base spirits.

Frostbite

1 oz tequila (I used a repasado)

.75 oz creme de cacao

.75 oz heavy whipping cream (regular heavy cream will do)

Garnish with dusting of cinnamon and nutmeg

 

Combine everything into a cocktail shaker, add ice, shake hard for about 10 secs. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with cinnamon and nutmeg

 

Notes:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      This drink is simple and delicious. The cream and cacao work together to smooth out the fiery tequila while at the same time not overpowering it and letting the agave flavor come through. It is like a creamy milk chocolate shake with a spicy kick.
