Visited St Augustine in Florida recently and came home with some of the local Datil Chillies from which I made a chilli tincture. Found this cocktail recipe when looking for something to use my homemade tincture in and it really shines! It’s got a slight sweetness to it which balances the bitter notes well. Will definitely make again.

I used Tequila, was out of Mezcal, and used 1/4 oz of Ancho Chile Liqueur for just the right amount of heat. Excellent cocktail! Very well balanced. This is going to be one of my favorites...thank you.

It's nice.
Try it with Ancho Reyes replacing the Mezcal for an amazing drink!

22.5ml Ancho Reyes? We enjoy the sharpness of this but when we want it a bit more subtle we substitute 5ml Ancho Reyes for the chilli tincture. A gorgeous cocktail.

Oh this is delicious- would be easy to enjoy many, not too heavy on the smoke, just enough to keep it interesting
