Ranch Water
HB-14955 · Hand-built original
A tall, sparkling ranch water of blanco tequila and sotol over muddled orange, in a glass rimmed with an herbal, Aleppo-pepper salt.
Main ingredient: kosher salt
Ingredients
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- ¾ tsp. coarsely chopped or crumbled mixed dried herbs and flowers (such as dried rosemary, dried oregano, dried chamomile, or edible roses)
- ¼ tsp. Aleppo-style pepper
- 1 orange wheel
- 1 oz. blanco tequila
- 1 oz. sotol or mezcal
- ¾ oz. lime juice
- 4 oz. sparkling mineral water, chilled
Method
- Stir the kosher salt, crumbled herbs and flowers and Aleppo-style pepper together in a small bowl, then spread the mixture on a small plate.
- Cut the orange wheel in half, rub the rim of a Collins glass with one half to moisten it, and roll the rim through the herbed salt; drop both orange halves into the glass.
- Muddle the orange halves gently at the bottom of the salted glass.
- Add the blanco tequila, sotol or mezcal and lime juice, fill the glass with ice, and top it with the chilled sparkling mineral water.
- Stir the ranch water gently once or twice so the salt rim stays intact, and serve.
