Mixologist Bex Wyant highlights the fiery character of Tequila Zarpado Reaper in two daring cocktails that stroll the road between smoky depth and shiny, spicy citrus.
Crafted in small batches from 100% Blue Weber agave, Tequila Zarpado is understood for its easy, genuine taste and adventurous spirit—qualities that shine even brighter within the model’s new limited-edition Reaper expression, infused with daring warmth from Carolina Reaper peppers.
Whether or not you’re within the temper for one thing darkish and fragrant or mild with a fiery kick, these recipes ship the best mixture of taste and aptitude.
