I’m enjoying the resurgence of the sexy cocktail across the country. Pretty glass, craft ice and pristine ingredients pair up with artistic techniques from talented mixologists. One such fellow is Christopher James of The Ryland Inn in New Jersey. Chris has mixed me my favorite drink of 2013 – the Reposado Crusta made with Herradura Reposado Tequila, pomegranate, lime, agave and Cava, a Spanish sparkling wine.

For Halloween, Chris was kind enough to share his festive recipe for The Tim Burton and I’m sharing it with you so you can try it tonight after the sugar-rush kiddies go to bed and you need a little…pick me up.
Ingredients:
- 2.0 ounces Deaths Door white whisky
- 0.75 ounce agar-agar clarified lemon juice
- 0.75 ounce 2:1 simple syrup
Directions:
- Stir ingredients with ice cubes for 30 seconds and strain into a chilled coupe.
- Garnish with a slice of dehydrated lemon wheel.
Cheers,
Veronique
