Day of the Dead Cocktail: Mango Star Rise

 

This cocktail recipe showcases Espanita Reposado Tequila that is aged six months in oak casks.  This delicious tequila is golden in color with wafting scents of spiced butter, vanilla butterscotch, jasmine tea, crystallized ginger with a slightly peppery herbal presence of freshly roasted agave.  The label of Espanita Reposado features the "Sun in Splendor" with the golden disk of the sun with sixteen rays and a human face.  It's an ancient symbol of rebirth, strength, and power.  

2 oz. Espanita Reposado Tequila
2 oz. Mango Juice
1 oz. Orange Juice
1 Starfruit (also known as carambola)
1 oz. Grenadine
Garnish: 1 slice of Star Fruit

Slice one starfruit and remove visible seeds with a tip of a knife.  Muddle sliced starfruit in a pulp, measure 1 oz. of pureed starfruit in a jigger and add to the Boston Shaker. 

Add Mango and Orange Juice (freshly pressed juice is preferable), Espanita Reposado tequila, and a handful of ice. 

Shake well and strain into a chilled cocktail glass filled with fresh ice. Gently pour grenadine down the inside of the glass, so it doesn't get mixed with the cocktail and slowly sinks to the bottom of the glass.
