Mezcal Tropical
An Ilegal daiquiri with notes of roasted agave and plantains ~
Add to a cocktail shaker:
2 oz Ilegal Mezcal Reposado
1 oz house banana syrup*
1 oz fresh lime juice
Shake and strain with ice and garnish with cinnamon and a banana.
2 bananas, peeled and sliced in small pieces
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup water
1 tsp lemon juice (optional)
Combine the sliced bananas, sugar, and water in a saucepan over medium heat, and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 15-20 min, or until the liquid has thickened, then remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.
Using a blender, puree the banana mixture until smooth. If desired, add lemon juice and stir to combine. Let cool completely before using in the cocktail.
