Tunki Rooftop by Handshake: Elevating Mixology in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

Mixologists, summer party organizers, and thirsty readers … are you ready for an exclusive recipe from Tunki Rooftop titled Made in Oaxaca, and crafted by Eleazar Barbosa?

Made in Oaxaca is a simple, elegant, and savory cocktail that can be easily prepared at every home with the below ingredients:

• 2 oz of mezcal
• 10ml of natural syrup
• 2 cucumber thin slices
• 5 fresh mint leaves previously washed
• 5 ml absinthe liqueur
• 1 thin slice of habanero chili for decoration, make sure to take the seeds out
• Ice
• All the ingredients are placed in a shaker. Mix with strong movements. Before serving in the glass, use a strain and use a strainer and strain twice. Once the liquid is ready, serve it in a clean cupetini glass.

This cocktail pays homage to the mezcal-producing region of Oaxaca, with its simple elegance and bold flavors. Eleazar himself shares, “Working with an ingredient like the habanero is the way to share a little bit of Mexico with the world. The habanero’s flavors blend exceptionally well with the other ingredients, though serrano or jalapeño peppers can be used as a substitute.” We would love for Tunki Rooftop or the Made in Oaxaca cocktail recipe to be included in any must-visit destination or cocktail roundups your publication may be working on.

This remarkable establishment is celebrated for its artfully crafted cocktails and intricate flavor profiles that push the boundaries of innovation. The captivating ambiance, exceptional mixology, and breathtaking views make Tunki Rooftop an ideal addition to any bucket list this summer. www.belmond.com
