Jalapeño Old Fashioned
an original of mine.
A balanced sweet and spicy was the goal here. This particular jalapeño liqueur is bright with fresh pepper flavour without sweetness. Like eating the pepper fresh from being picked.
Quite happy with the results. A hint of smoke, spice and savouriness on the aroma. The sip starts with savoury roasted agave, caramel, vanilla, rosemary, roast meat, then transitions to fresh peppers as the capsicum start to tickle. More salt and pepper with subtle glazed bbq and oak on the finish. 😋
Now I know, other than the tequila and agave nectar, it could be hard to find the ingredients if not local. But if you are and want a little heat right now well worth finding the bottles. Alternatively you could infuse vodka or tequila with fresh jalapeño. Use a few drops of salt solution, a dash of mezcal. Would still be a great drink.
