The combination of tequila and triple sec make this riff on the classic Corpse Reviver remarkably Margarita-like, only with added complexity and subtlety...
This had been in my must try list for a while (until I had opened a bottle of Lillet) and now it is straight onto my Favourites list! You excelled yourself Simon!! Time for a second….
Used Tapatio 110 proof (55% ABV) Blanco Tequila and Jade Esprit Edouard Verte (72% ABV) which is an amazing Absinthe but the Tequila still shone through - tried it twice - lemon and Lime - and for me the Lime was the winner.
The Corpse is a great drink but this is the better but maybe not as many on a night!
Loved, loved, loved this cocktail. We had it with a hot and spicy Mexican dinner and it went perfectly. It is similar to a margarita in flavour but not as sweet. Wonderful blending of tastes. Will definitely have again.
