Verde Gimlet Cocktail
5 servings
5 minutes
Absolute transparency, summer freshness and long hours of work. To introduce the aroma of cilantro into a clear tequila mix, but not cilantro as such, you need to cook a cordial of greens with a brine of hot peppers, and then leave it for more than six hours. Recipe from the St. Petersburg bar El Copitas.
