Bésame, which translates to Kiss Me, is one of the best cocktails for romantic occasions. The ultra-smooth tequila liqueur called Agavero is the key to getting your date to pucker up. Known in Mexico for centuries as a potent aphrodisiac, the essence of the Damiana flower is infused into the tequila which itself is made from 100% blue agave.

Ingredients:

  • 2 lime wedges
  • 5-6 raspberries
  • 1 1/2 oz Agavero
  • passion fruit juice
  • dash of Chambord

Preparation:

  1. Muddle limes and raspberries in a highball glass.
  2. Add Agavero.
  3. Top off with passion fruit juice.
  4. Add a splash of Chambord.
  5. Pour this mix into a cocktail shaker with ice.
  6. Shake well.
  7. Strain back into the highball glass.
