Tequila meets tarragon and pineapple.

A bittersweet tarragon syrup marries perfectly with earthy tequila in this cocktail from ABV in San Francisco.

Ingredients

2 oz. blanco tequila
1 oz. fresh lime juice
1/2 oz. pineapple syrup (such as Small Hand Foods)
1/2 oz. tarragon syrup
1 dash absinthe

Tools:shaker, strainer
Glass:coupe

Preparation

Shake all of the ingredients with ice, then strain into a chilled glass.

Tarragon Syrup: Blanch 1 1/2 oz. of tarragon leaves (no stems) for 15 seconds in boiling water, then transfer the leaves to an ice bath. In a blender, combine the leaves with 2 cups of simple syrup (1:1) and blend until smooth. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
