Spicy Sundown Habanero Cocktail

We take our summer fun seriously. This tropical Habanero cocktail was made in collaboration with Hotel ZaZa for poolside sipping.

Tropical and bright, the Spicy Sundown was made to be enjoyed poolside, watching the summer sunset from your chaise lounge. This spicy, sippable cocktail is just as delightful in a lawn chair in your own backyard.

Prep Time: 5 min

Servings: 1

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 1.5 oz silver/blanco tequila
  • 1 oz fresh-squeezed lime juice
  • .75 oz pineapple gum syrup (we like Liber & Co)
  • .5 oz kiwi puree
  • 1 dash of salt tincture (1:10 ratio)
  • 1 squeeze of Yellowbird Habanero Hot Sauce (measured with your heart, of course)
  • Cilantro stem (for garnish, if you’re feeling fancy)
  • Tajin (for the rim)
  • Ice

Add all liquids to a cocktail shaker. Shake it like your momma gave it to ya, then strain over ice into a Tajin-rimmed rocks glass. Add cilantro for garnish.

Show us how you sauce!
