About this episode
Today we're going to explore a drink whose origins are only loosely Mexican — and which, even in today’s landscape of endless Martini riffs, doesn’t quite qualify as one. Naturally, that drink is called: The Mexican Martini. Joining us to do so is Mario Martinez, Dallas-based head mixologist for Travis Street Hospitality . Listen on (or read below) to discover Mario's Mexican Martini recipe — and don't forget to leave us a review wherever you get your podcasts! Mario Martinez's Mexican Martini Recipe - ¼ ounce agave nectar - ¼ ounce fresh lime juice - ¼ ounce orange juice - ½ ounce olive brine - ½ ounce orange liqueur, such as Jalisco 1562 - 1 ½ ounces reposado tequila, such as Tequila Ocho - 1 dash Firewater tincture (sous vide blend of peppers and Everclear, strained) Directions 1.
