In partnership with Mijenta tequila, I wanted to bring you another cocktail I’ve never had before. Thanks to the nearly endless supply of inspiration coming from my inbox, this request sounded too delicious to pass up.
The Colletti Royale was created by Julie Reiner (@mixtressnyc), one of the most iconic bartenders in the world.
This cocktail calls for blood orange juice, a key ingredient only widely available in the US in the winter and early spring months.
It also calls for the combination of sparkling Rose and Reposado Tequila, a pairing that I absolutely love.
Ana Maria Romero, the Maestra Tequilera, just happens to make a beautiful Reposado that goes perfectly in this recipe.
Ingredients
0.5oz | 15ml lime juice
0.5oz | 15ml blood orange juice
0.5oz | 15ml Cointreau
0.5oz | 15ml Elderflower liqueur
1.5oz | 45ml mijen tatequila Reposado
Sparkling Rose, to top.
Cocktail Directions
Combine all ingredients, except sparkling rose, into a shaker tin, add ice, shake, and strain into a glass filled with ice. Top with sparkling rose. Garnish with a blood orange wedge or wheel.
