Sotol Matador

A twist on the classic Tequila Matador, the Sotol Matador features the smoky and earthy flavors of sotol, a unique agave-based spirit. The combination of tangy lemon juice, sweet pineapple juice, and a hint of heat from habanero-infused vodka creates a well-balanced and refreshing cocktail with a subtle kick. The addition of agave syrup and a touch of cilantro adds depth and complexity to this south-of-the-border libation.
