Method

Infusion Preparation

1

Infuse the Tequila

Begin by slicing the sweet red pepper into thin strips. Place the strips into a clean glass jar and pour the reposado tequila over them. Seal the jar tightly and let it infuse in a cool, dark place for at least 24 hours, shaking gently every few hours to help with the infusion process.

2

Prepare the Honey Syrup

In a small saucepan, combine the honey and 1 tablespoon of water over medium heat. Stir until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Set aside to cool.

Cocktail Assembly

3

Mix the Cocktail

After the tequila has infused for at least 24 hours, strain the tequila into a mixing glass filled with ice. Add the sweet red pepper liqueur and dry vermouth to the mixing glass. Pour in the cooled honey syrup and stir gently to combine the ingredients.

4

Serve the Cocktail

Strain the mixture into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a slice of sweet red pepper on the rim of the glass for an added touch of flavor and presentation.
