When celebrating CINCO DE MAYO is there really any other choice than a tequila cocktail? This year, whether you opt for a traditional margarita or shake things up with a smokey Mezcal Matcha Margarita, we have got you covered with a recipe below.
MATCHA is a healthy and delicious addition to margaritas.
In this version, traditionally-used tequila is traded for mezcal, a Mexican liquor, it imparts a complex, earthy, smokey flavor.
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 fl oz Mezcal
3/4 fl oz Triple Sec Liqueur
3/4 fl oz Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
2 Jalapeño slices (seeds removed)
1/6 fl oz Agave Syrup
1/2 pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon Matcha
INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Rim your glass with lime juice by cutting a 1/4" slit into a quarter of a lime and running it around the lip of the glass until the entire surface is evenly damp.
2) Place salt in a shallow bowl and run the rim of the glass through the salt.
3) In a cocktail shaker, muddle jalapeño slices (leaving a handful for garnish), then add the ice.
4) Combine remaining margarita ingredients. Shake for about 30 seconds, until the shaker feels cold in your hands. Using a strainer, pour the mixture directly into prepared glass, and garnish with jalapeños and a lime if desired. Enjoy!
Matcha, like champagne, is crafted from specific cultivars, each contributing unique flavors. Sorate offers four cultivars: Yabukita (balanced, vibrant green), Samidori (deep green, mild), Asahi (rare, rich, creamy), and Okumidori (umami, bright green).
Single Cultivar matcha showcases one cultivar's traits, preferred by enthusiasts. Blended Cultivar matcha combines multiple cultivars for a balanced flavor, appealing to a broader audience. At Sorate, our diverse matchas highlight these unique flavors and qualities for a distinctive matcha experience.
