May 5-Tequila Almond Old Fashioned
So it’s cinco de Mayo and I did'n’t realize that until I got up this morning. So instead of redoing my entire schedule I decided to do a tequila version of today’s cocktail that was under the Variations section under the cocktail. That seems Cinco De Mayo enough right? The Almond Old Fashioned is a classic Old Fashioned with some Amaretto cut in. The tequila version supplants the bourbon and simple syrup for Tequila and Agave Syrup.
This cocktail was created by MArk Prat at the Bar Maze in London, and that’s all that I could find on it from Difford’s Guide. I’m sorry this is a short post but there isn’t much to this cocktail. The interesting thing about this cocktail is that my mom cringed at the smell but loved the taste. Good thing scent isn’t a category in the score sheet. Also my aunt enjoyed it despite being an Amaretto hater. Full judge sheet here : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HGwHfGO0kF9jU6NKA4ccZphMtt-L9XVIyK3Gn_mNDc8/edit?tab=t.0 .
