Space Face

An elegant, fragrant riff on the Tiki classic Missionary’s Downfall from Julia McKinney (former Lost Lake, now Young American in Chicago) The floral notes in the blanc/bianco vermouth and the mint complement the grassy and herbaceous notes of the blanco tequila, while the pineapple flavor works with the lime to offer tropical flavor and acidity while boosting the mint notes Muddle 4 mint leaves together with a wedge of lime Add: 1.5 oz Blanco Tequila (feel free to go with 100% agave bottle of choice, I like Tapatio a lot) 1 oz Blanc/Bianco Vermouth (Dolin/Carpano/La Pivon) .5 oz Pineapple Liqueur/Pineapple Gomme Syrup (Giffard for liqueur, Small Hand Foods for syrup) .5 oz Fresh Lime Juice .25 oz honey-mint sweetener (2 parts honey:1 part Creme de Menthe, Tempus Fugit or Giffard, don’t want the fake green colored bottle) Shake with ice and strain into a chilled double rocks glass with ice cubes. Garnish with a bouquet of fresh mint #weekendtiki
