Taxco
The Taxco is a lovely Gin Fizz riff that substitutes tequila for gin and agave for simple syrup. It hails from Boston’s Green Street bar, a local institution.
It’s a beautifully bright, lush drink. The tequila flavor comes through nicely, supported by the tart lime notes and the bouquet of orange blossom.
Ingredients
- 1½ parts Blanco tequila
- ¾ part Lime juice
- ½ part Agave nectar
- 2 dashes Orange bitters
- 1 part Egg white or Aquafaba
- 3 parts Sparkling water
Instructions
Shake all ingredients (except sparkling water) first without ice, and then again with ice added. Double-strain through a fine mesh strainer into a tall glass (no ice). Top with sparkling water, and serve with a straw. No garnish is required, but an orange twist or slice wouldn’t be out of place.
