Soft Machine
1.5 oz Cazadores Reposado Tequila
0.5 oz St. Germain
0.5 oz Aperol
1 oz Cantaloupe Purée
Cantaloupe Purée
Cut off the seeds and the rind of the cantaloupe, and puree the hell out of it in a blender. When there are no chunks left at all, you’re ready to go. Don’t bother trying to strain it like we did with the watermelon, the puree is less thick, but there is way less liquid.
Shake well with ice, serve up and garnish with a slice of cantaloupe.
NOTES: This was damn good. I’m pretty partial to cantaloupe, so I might be a little biased here, but I really enjoyed this one. I’m starting to have a really hard time not putting Cazadores in everything. I must have had a lot of shitty tequila in my life, because this stuff is like a whole different category of booze. The drink itself was sweet, but not cloyingly so, fruity and crisp. It was also the first bright orange drink I’ve ever made. This was a good one.
