paseo bravo

1 1/2 oz Reposado Tequila (Espolon)
1/2 oz Del Maguey Mezcal Vida (Banhez)
1/4 oz Crème de Cacao (Bols)
1/4 oz Ancho Reyes Chile Liqueur
1 tsp Maraschino (Luxardo)
1 dash Mole Bitters (Bittermens)

Stir with ice, strain into a double old fashioned glass with a large ice cube, and garnish with a cherry.Two Thursdays ago, I decided to make another recipe from Dear Irving via a set of online recipe flashcards called the Paseo Bravo. There, it was attributed to bartenders Rolando and Alex for the Fall 2022 menu. The description read, "A new addition to satisfy fans of the Oaxacan Old Fashioned while offering something with some rich, slightly spicy layers. Named for the tree-lined promenade in Pueblo where Ancho Reyes comes from." Once prepared, the Paseo Bravo showcased a smoky agave, chili, and cherry aroma. Next, a semi-sweet sip led into smoky agave, chili spice, chocolate, and cherry flavors on the swallow.
