Bunny Sour

Bunny Sour is a velvety, luxurious riff on the classic sour that beautifully highlights the warm, oak-aged depth of 400 Conejos Reposado Mezcal. It builds a perfectly balanced base by combining 2 oz of the reposado mezcal, 0.75 oz of fresh lemon juice, and 0.5 oz of agave syrup in a cocktail shaker. To achieve its signature airy texture, 0.5 oz of egg white is added and vigorously "dry shaken" without ice, then shaken again with ice to flawlessly chill and froth the liquid. Strained elegantly into a chilled coupe glass, this sophisticated, silky sipper is delicately finished with a few drops of Angostura bitters resting atop the dense foam for an aromatic, spiced finish.

Ingredients:

  • 50 ml of 400 Rabbits Rested

  • 15 ml of mango liqueur

  • 40 ml of yellow lemon juice

  • 20 ml of natural syrup

  • 30 ml of aqua fava

  • Ice

Instructions:

  • Add 400 Conejos Reposado and the mango liqueur to a shaker without ice.

  • Incorporate the yellow lemon juice, the natural syrup, and the aqua fava.

  • Shake vigorously for a few seconds until the mixture foams.

  • Add ice to the shaker and shake again.

  • Garnish with lemon peel and a few drops of Angostura bitters on top of the foam.
