Dead Man's Handle

1 1⁄2 oz Blanco tequila
3⁄4 oz Aperol
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Orgeat
Instructions

Shake, strain into a DOF filled with crushed ice. Garnish with Taijin. (see note)

Notes

Orgeat can be increased to 3/4 oz if you need more sweetness. Taijin is a powdered mixture of chiles, lime and salt that typically goes on fruit. If you can't find it, Penzeys makes Pico Fruta which is very similar.

Curated this slightly. Rewrote instructions to avoid copyright. Added an explanation about Taijin. Thanks,  Zachary
