Method

Cocktail

1

Chill glass

Place a rocks glass or coupe in the freezer for 5–10 minutes, or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

2

If rimming the glass, rub a lime wedge around the glass edge and dip into coarse or smoked sea salt. Set glass aside.

3

Add Azunia Añejo tequila (2 oz), fresh lime juice (0.75 oz), agave nectar (0.5 oz), orange liqueur (0.5 oz) and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker.

4

Fill the shaker with ice (enough to nearly fill) and cap the shaker. Shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker becomes frosty and well chilled.

5

Discard the ice or water from the chilled glass if used. Strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer (or Hawthorne strainer) into the chilled rocks glass over one large ice cube or neat in a coupe, depending on preference.

6

Express the orange twist over the drink by holding it skin-side down and giving it a firm twist to release oils, then rub the rim with the twist and drop it into the drink.

Garnish & Finish

7

Place a lime wheel or wedge on the rim or float it in the glass as a visual accent.

8

Give the cocktail a final sniff and serve immediately. Recommend pairing with light tapas or smoky grilled flavors that complement the añejo's oak and caramel notes.
