AdInstructions
- Halve the lime lengthwise. Cut one half into eight half-moon slices, about 3-4 mm thick, and put them in the bottom of a sturdy rocks glass.
- Add the Re'Al Blue Agave Nectar Natural Sweetener and muddle.
- Add the cucumber and the jalapeno slice and keep muddling until the lime juice is fully pressed out and the sweetener has dissolved.
- Tip the muddled mix into the serving glass, preferably a tall 30 cl highball glass or a large rocks glass.
- Pour the tequila blanco, kept in the freezer, into the glass you muddled in. Swirl it around to rinse the glass, then pour it into the serving glass and stir well.
- Break four or five large ice cubes into chunks rather than crushing them, add them to the glass and stir. Top up with extra ice, garnish with a slice each of lime, cucumber and jalapeno, and put in a stirrer instead of a straw.
