The Departed is one of my favorite new films and is nominated for an Oscar in 2007. In honor of the movie, Tequila Tezón created The Departini. It's a stunning cocktail of Tezón's spectacular reposado tequila and Martell Cognac with the addition of citrus from Cointreau and agave nectar for a sweetner. I can gaurantee you'll thoroughly enjoy this Martini.

Ingredients:

  • 2 parts Tequila Tezón Reposado
  • 1 part Martell Cognac
  • 1 part Cointreau
  • 1 Tbsp agave nectar
  • squeeze of lime juice
  • lemon wedge for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
  2. Shake well.
  3. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
  4. Garnish with a lemon wedge.
