This really isn’t a recipe but more of a tutorial on how to take a shot of tequila, or tequila cruda, the Hollywood way. Tequila connoisseurs will tell you that you should savor the taste and aroma slowly when drinking straight tequila. However, this method is a hit at parties and with tourists in Mexico, and there is an order that should be followed for it to make sense. A decent gold or silver tequila or Mezcal is best, avoid the cheaper brands which almost certainly bring on hangovers.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 1/2 oz tequila
- lemon or lime wedge
- 1 pinch of salt
PREPARATION:
- Moisten the back of your hand below the index finger (usually by licking) and pour on the salt.
- Lick the salt off your hand.The salt lessens the burn of the tequila.
- Drink the tequila.
- Quickly bite the lemon or lime wedge. The sour fruit balances and enhances the flavor of the tequila.
