Echoes of Time

Created and posted by applejack.
1 oz Blanco tequila, Astral
1 oz Amaro Nardini
1 oz Rucolino, Amaro Cinpatrazzo
1 Orange peel
Instructions

Stir, strain into old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere or a Nick & Nora glass. Garnish with expressed orange swath.

Notes

For the tequila choice, I prefer this with a strongly flavored, earthy tequila (such as the 92 proof flavor bomb Astral). Amaro Cinpatrazzo is a locally produced amaro from the Chicagoland area whose primary ingredient is arugula; it also has notes of blueberry and coffee. I haven't had any other amari that are any easy substitute, perhaps a split of Zucca + Caffe Amaro.

The Margarita, or An Earthy Mystery

Americans drink a lot of Margaritas. While the Margarita makes up eighteen percent of the mixed drinks ordered in the United States, tequila represents only six percent of the domestic spirits market. Unfortunately, we drink a lot of bad Margaritas too. Neon colored, super-sweet, artificially flavored, poorly made, cheap ingredient, frozen-slushy Margaritas surely account for most of those eighteen percent.

Perhaps one reason that Americans drink a lot of bad Margaritas is that we seem to have no idea of its origin. There are theories (among others) that Dallas socialites, Peggy Lee, Mexican (or Irish, or Texan) bartenders, German ambassador’s daughters or Ziegfeld Follies dancers all have a hand in the drink.
