Tanteo-Adding some new flavor to tequila
The Trilogy of Tanteo Tequila Flavor
Tequila. No more is this the same swill you did shots of during your college years(or last weekend for that matter)
Several month ago Tanteo, a soho based company released it’s new line of flavored tequilas. This line is comprised of three distinct flavors, tropical, jalapeno and chocolate.
Oddily enough two of these three flavors brought back memories of my childhood.
The tropical had hints of pineapple, and passion fruit with a mild smokey undertone. It made me wonder what fruit punch would be like, if it had grown up along side me.
The chocolate was reminiscent of milk chocolate, and reminded of a partially melted hersey bar on a summers day. How it’s warm but still tastes great.
With a love of all things spicy, the jalepeno was my favorite. Just as the name promises, it had just the right amount of spice and kick, and contained hints of cilantro. In addition to a more than expected warming sensation, after a few seconds I felt the heat of both the tequila and jalepeno work it’s way though my body.
Inspired by the recent warm weather and the jalepeno flavoring I decided to whip up a quick cocktail, known as the Tanteo Michelada.
