Dancing On My Own

A refreshing Margarita riff featuring touches of fruit and spice 🍓🍉🌶 💃 The unaged tequila and mezcal form a base with notes of citrus zest and subtle smoke that complement the strawberry (syrup) and zippy lime. Topping with watermelon jalapeño tepache (a carbonated, fermented beverage from Mexico) lends additional refreshing fruit flavor and a bit of complementary green chile heat. Delicious on a warm spring or summer afternoon 1.5 oz Blanco Tequila (Tapatio, El Tesoro, etc) .5 oz Mezcal (Espadin variety) .5 oz Fresh Lime Juice .5 oz strawberry syrup (hull and chop 1/2 C strawberries and add 1/2 C granulated sugar.
