Breakfast in Tampa (or, guava pastry & a cigar, while reading la gaceta)
9 days ago by RBWells to c/cocktails
(Sorry for the mixed measurements - I had a bunch of egg white so had to weigh out 1 egg worth)
35 grams egg white
1 Tbsp guava jelly or guava paste
1 oz good mezcal
1/2 oz over proof reposado tequila
1/2 oz Aperol
3/4 oz lemon juice
ETA I failed to list one step. First: whisk or muddle the jelly and booze to incorporate it.
Shake without ice, then with ice. Just as good as it sounds and so beautiful.
Jelly should get considered more for a cocktail ingredient! I've only done this once or twice, just to use up the dregs of a jar of jam.
I just noticed the foam... I'd have expected a lot more from a whole egg's worth of egg white.

A place for conversation about cocktails, ingredients, home mixology, the bar industry or liquor industry, glassware - this is not an exhaustive list. If you think it's in some way related to cocktails it's probably fine.
If you post something you didn't create give credit whenever possible.

We love garnishes.
Remember the code of conduct, keep it nice. In terms of cocktails- specific etiquette that might be different from other communities:
Mentioning your blog, insta, website, book or bar is allowed, yes. For now at least, we do allow self-promotion. If it gets out of hand this might change.
A good post with a drink you don't like is still a good post! Try not to conflate the drink and the post or poster. If someone has a relevant title, gorgeous photo and clearly formatted recipe of what you consider a truly terrible drink, a comment is more appropriate than a downvote.
On that topic: Polite critique/reviews of drinks (or posts, images, etc.) is allowed here. Encouraged , even. It's a good tool for improving your drinks and content. Really, just be nice.
