HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER

high plains drifter cocktail

I couldn’t resist trying out this cocktail the first time I saw the name.  How can you go wrong with a Clint Western-inspired name?!  The Campari rinse adds just a hint of bitterness to this drink, which works well.

Recipe

2 oz Tequila

3/4 oz Honey syrup

3/4 oz fresh lemon juice

1 dash Angostura bitters

1 tsp Campari

Rinse stemmed cocktail glass with Campari.  Combine other ingredients in shaker with ice and shake vigorously.  Strain into cocktail glass.
