Tonight’s cocktail for cocktail hour was a Habanero Lime ‘Rita. Just something fun to try as I had just gotten a new bottle of Monin Habanero Lime Syrup. I knew right away that this would be perfect with tequilla.
I have been enjoying picking up random flavored syrups, bitters, and shrubs to experiment with. The more recipes I make from different sources, the more ideas I have for flavors I want to try. I knew I wanted to get something new that was habanero flavored and Monin’s have always been a favorite.
