Tamarind Agua Fresca
Agua de Tamarindo will intoxicate you with its beautiful sweet and sour notes. The refreshing non-alcoholic drink pairs perfectly with Mexican cuisine.
Ingredients
- 4 oz Tamarind syrup
- 6-8 oz sparkling or non-sparkling water
- 2-4 ice cubes
- 1 lime wedge
- 1 oz Tajín chili spice
Instructions
- Place 1 oz of Tajín chili spice on a small flat plate.
- Use a pairing knife and a cutting board to quarter a lime into wedges.
- Moisten the rim of the glass with a lime wedge. Gently roll the rim against the Tajín.
- Using a cocktail jigger, measure 4 oz of Tamarind Syrup and add to the highball glass.
- Add 6-8 ounces of sparkling or non-sparkling water to the glass. Use a cocktail stirrer to combine the water and the Tamarind Syrup. Add ice.
