Review:
A Margarita with a touch of smoky character and plenty of warming oomph. It crossed my mind that whatever "oomph" is in Spanish would be a fitting name for this Margarita, so I hit Google Translate and amusingly it came back with "atracción sexual". Hence, instead of a mere "Smoky Chili Margarita", this became the Atracción Ahumado (Smoky Attraction).
Variant:
History:
Created in October 2021 by yours truly and inspired by Stelios Papadopoulos' Smoky Tommy's Margarita.
