Tequi La Banane

A delicious, fruit forward riff on the Mai Tai from Orlando Franklin McCray of NYC’s Night Moves The caramelized sugar, baking spice, and butterscotch notes in the reposado tequila work nicely with the nutty orgeat and banana while the fresh lemon juice and passionfruit liqueur add bright and tart flavors to balance the drink 1.5 oz Reposado Tequila (El Tesoro, Arette, etc) .5 oz Fresh Lemon Juice .5 oz Orgeat (almond syrup; Small Hand Foods makes a nice version) .25 oz Banana Liqueur (Giffard or Tempus Fugit) .25 oz Passionfruit Liqueur (Giffard; Small Hand Foods syrup is decent sub) Shake with ice and strain into a chilled double rocks glass with a few ice cubes #weekendtiki
