Spiced Cortez

AI-generatedMediumRocks

A swaggering, sun-scorched encounter between the Caribbean and Mexico, finished with a whisper of French elegance.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 oz Spiced Rum
  • 3/4 oz Tequila
  • 3/4 oz Cointreau
  • 1/2 oz Cognac
  • 1/4 oz Amaretto

Method

  1. 11. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice.
  2. 22. Add the spiced rum, tequila, Cointreau, cognac, and amaretto.
  3. 33. Shake hard for 12 seconds to integrate the contrasting base spirits.
  4. 44. Strain into a rocks glass over a single large ice cube.
  5. 55. Let the drink rest for 20 seconds before the first sip so the ice begins its work.

PRO TIP

Use a reposado tequila rather than blanco — its light barrel age bridges the gap between the spiced rum's warmth and the cognac's depth without fighting either.

Garnish — wide lime wheel rested on the ice
