La Malinche from Jose
Ingredients:
- 2 oz. Casamigos Blanco tequila
- 2 small serrano peppers
- 2 slices cucumber, both cut the length of the vegetable
- 3/4 oz. lime juice
- 3/4 oz. white pepper simple syrup
To make simple syrup, toast white peppercorn in a sauce pan before adding equal parts sugar and water.
To make cocktail, muddle one slice of cucumber and peppers in a shaker. Add tequila, lime juice, and white pepper simple syrup. Shake vigorously. Roll other cucumber slice into a cylinder and secure with a toothpick. Serve cocktail on ice in a rocks glass and garnish with cucumber roll, or pour as a shot.
La Malinche can also be purchased at Jose for $12.
La Malinche was prepared by Danny de la Sancha, a bartender at Jose. The restaurant, which serves cuisine inspired by Guadalajara, Mexico, is located at 4931 W. Lovers Ln. in Dallas.
