Ingredients
For the Cilantro Simple Syrup:
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon coriander seeds
- lime zest of 1
- 1 cilantro small bunch (15 to 20 sprigs
For the cocktail:
- 1 1/2 ounces reposado tequila Exotico brand
- 1 ounce Strawberry Puree prepared as recipe below
- 3/4 ounce cilantro simple syrup
- 1/2 ounce lime juice fresh
- cilantro sprig, for garnish
Instructions
- To make the cilantro syrup, add water, sugar, coriander seeds and lime zest to a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Take the mixture off the heat and let cool for 15 minutes. Add the cilantro sprigs, cover, and let steep for 4 hours. Strain into a clean bowl and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- To make the cocktail, add tequila, strawberry puree, cilantro syrup and lime juice to a cocktail shaker with ice. Cap and shake until well-chilled. Strain into a coupe glass and garnish with a cilantro sprig.
Notes
- * To make strawberry puree give 1 pound (ish) of strawberries a good rinse. Do not dry. Hull and half the strawberries. Quarter any extra large strawberries. Add strawberries to a large saucepan and warm over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook until strawberries start to soften and release juices. Remove from heat and transfer to a small food processor. Add a dab of water and process until smooth. Pour mixture through a fine mesh basket strainer into a clean bowl (you can use a spatula here to help press the liquids through strainer). Discard the solids. Let cool before using.
