Beet Around The Bush
Ingredients:
1 beet, peeled and sliced
Juice of 3 limes
2 teaspoons brown sugar
Pinch of ground ginger
1 1⁄2 ounces silver tequila
1 ounce simple syrup
1 ounce fresh lemon juice
1⁄2 ounce mescal
Piece of beet leaf, for garnish (cut it in halves or quarters to fit in the glass, if needed.)
Method:
In a sauté pan, combine the beet, lime juice, brown sugar, and ginger. Cover and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the beets are tender, about 10 minutes.
Remove the beets and discard (or keep for eating later) and let the liquid cool. Pour the liquid into a blender and add the tequila, simple syrup, lemon juice, and mescal.
Blend for about 5 seconds then add about 1 cup of ice and blend until smooth. Pour into a cocktail glass and garnish with the beet leaf.
