Sometimes when you taste certain shooters you have to wonder why they're a shooter at all, you'd rather savor the taste. This is the case with the Mexican Samurai for me anyway, but I still serve it in caballitos (tall shot glasses, traditionally used for straight tequila) and sip and relish the combination of chilled tequila and TY KU. It's a simple mix but one in which the snap of agave is a great compliment to the fruity sweetness of the liqueur.

Ingredients:

  • 2 parts TY KU liqueur
  • 1 part tequila
  • fresh sweet and sour mix

Preparation:

  1. Pour the tequila and Ty Ku into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
  2. Add a dash of fresh sweet and sour mix.
  3. Shake well.
  4. Strain into a shot glass.
