Happy first birthday to Cocktails@lemmy-world!
For June, the challenge is a hot cocktail - either spicy or literally hot. Bring on the heat! Warm yourself if you are in the southern hemisphere, or cool off with a spicy spicy drink if it’s summer (it is very much summer here).
No specified ingredient this round, doesn’t have to be alcoholic but must contain at least three ingredients, most upvoted wins.
Nothing to submit this time. I tried a couple of things with Ancho Reyes, but nothing came together. I’ve had that bottle for almost two years and haven’t ever found any recipe with it that really works.
My daughter doesn’t like it either - I find it has an affinity for pineapple, and I make tepache and also fresh pineapple juice a lot, so get a lot of mileage out of it. It was really good with Cynar in the pas de loup one too but the drink wasn’t spicy overall.
If you never figure it out, try it in or on pineapple upside down cake, or on vanilla ice cream. Or the Pas De Loup one I tried, 2 parts mezcal to 1 part Cynar to 1/2 part Ancho Reyes, lemon and honey to taste.
