Red Chile Daquiri

INGREDIENTS

  • 2-3 chipotle chiles in adobo
  • 1 cup simple syrup
  • 2 ounces blanco tequila
  • ¾ ounce chipotle chile simple syrup
  • 1 ounce lime juice, preferably freshly squeezed

INSTRUCTIONS

Remove the chipotle chiles from the can (leave behind as much of the adobo canning sauce as possible) and add to a blender with the simple syrup.  Blend thoroughly and strain into a jar.  Cover and refrigerate what you don’t use in the drink.

Mix the tequila, chipotle simple syrup and the lime juice in a shaker with ice; shake thoroughly and strain into a coupe glass.
