Ingredients:
- 1/2 medium orange
- 1 lime, halved (with a thin sliced reserved for garnish)
- 1 1/2 fluid ounces blanco tequila
- 1/2 fluid ounce Italian amaro
- 1 teaspoon agave syrup
- 2 dashes liquid smoke
- Ice cubes
Instructions:
- Juice the orange half and the lime through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl or liquid measuring cup. Measure out 2 fluid ounces (60 ml) of the juice mixture and transfer to a cocktail shaker.Shake, don't stir, 'cause juice, syrup, and liquor all have different viscosities.
- Add the tequila, amaro, agave, and liquid smoke to the shaker, then fill with ice cubes. Shake until the exterior of the shaker is very cold, 20 to 30 seconds. Strain into a cocktail coupe, garnish with the lime slice, and consume immediately.
