AGAVE KISS

Serve In A Cocktail Glass

Tequila isn't mixed into creamy drinks too often, but when it is, such as here in the Agave Kiss, it's a dream. This one happens to be ultra-creamy, complete with chocolate and raspberry liqueurs and double cream, shaken to a slurry mix. The original recipe here does call for silver, or blanco, tequila but I prefer to use an aged one instead. The reposados and anejos add a caramel sweetness that goes perfectly with the creams for the ultimate sweetheart drinks.

  • 2 oz Herradura Tequila Silver
  • 1 oz white creme de cacao
  • 1 oz double cream
  • 1/2 oz Chambord
  • white chocolate flakes for rimming
  • fresh raspberries for garnish

In a cocktail shaker with ice, add Herradura tequila, white crème de cacao, double cream and Chambord. Shake for 15 seconds. Pour into a chilled cocktail glass, rimmed with white chocolate, add a spear of fresh raspberries, and serve.
