Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz butterfly pea-infused tequila

  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 0.5 oz simple syrup
  • Salt for rimming
  • Lime slice for garnish

Instructions

  • Wet half of the rim of your cocktail glass with a lime wedge. Add salt to a small dish and dip the wet side of the rim into the salt to coat it.

  • Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well-chilled.
  • Fill your cocktail glass with crushed ice.
  • Strain the lime mixture into the glass.
  • Slowly pour the butterfly pea-infused tequila over the back of a spoon to create a dark purple layer on top.
  • Garnish with a lime slice on the rim of the glass and serve immediately.

Notes

Pro Tips
  • For a more dramatic color effect, ensure you pour the tequila gently to maintain the layers.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice for a brighter and fresher flavor.
  • Experiment with flavored salts for rimming to add an extra dimension to the drink.
