Viva Maria! #2

1 1⁄2 oz Blanco tequila
1⁄2 oz Nocino
2 t Bénédictine
7 dr Bitters, Bittermens Xocolatl Mole
Instructions

Build over ice. Optional lemon twist

Notes

Curator's note: There is an older, unrelated tequila cocktail with the Viva Maria! name, so the one here has been renamed to #2 per the suggestion of the latter's creator.

History

Named after the Louis Malle 1965 film starring Jeanne Moreau and Brigitte Bardot, shot in Mexico. The Benedictine seems an appropriate hat-tip to a theme of the movie

  • My DIY walnut liqueur is very cinnamon-y which worked well with this. A flavorful blanco is a must here I think.
