The Golden Boy
Ingredients
- 4 oz Casa Mexico Tequila Reposado
- 1 oz agave nectar, undiluted
- 1.5 oz lime
- 2 eggs
- 4 dashes Peychauds Bitters
- 4 dashes Firewater Bitters
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a tin, seal tightly, and dry shake (The objective here is not only to mix the ingredients but also to aerate so shake as long and hard as you can)
- Fill with ice and shake until thoroughly chilled, about 15 seconds (the bottom of a metal shaker should frost over).
- Grab a pair of pre-chilled glasses and strain cocktail into both glasses. Garnish with shaved chocolate and conchita if desired and serve.
Notes
Pro Tips
- When dry shaking, be sure to hold both parts tightly as the air will expand the mixture.
- Practice makes perfect. The secret to aerating (by dry shaking) without getting tired quickly is practice, just as a boxer must spar before a big fight. Repetition over time will yield improved results.
- Chill your glassware for a minimum of 30 minutes before you plan to use it, but ideally for a few hours whenever possible.
- Wait until the last moment to pull your glassware from the refrigerator or freezer to allow for maximum chill.
