Glass Guide- Cocktail Glass

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:

  1. Pour the tequila, dry vermouth and bitters into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
  2. Shake well.
  3. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
  4. Garnish with an olive or lemon twist.
