The Tequini is simply a
Martini made with a
tequila base. Tequinis are a drier cocktail than what you may be used to for a tequila drink, but it's a fascinating concoction that allows the tequila to shine. Choose a premium blanco tequila for a dry Tequini or, if you prefer, turn it into a sweet Tequini with a premium reposado tequila and
sweet vermouth.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 oz blanco tequila
- 1/2 oz dry vermouth
- dash of Angostura bitters
- olive or lemon twist for garnish
Preparation:
- Pour the tequila, dry vermouth and bitters into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
- Shake well.
- Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
- Garnish with an olive or lemon twist.
