Shishito Margarita

  • 2.5 oz. blanco tequila
  • 3/4 oz. triple sec
  • 1/2 oz. lime juice
  • 1/8 oz. Cocktail Kick

Serve over ice in a glass rimmed with Cocktail Kick/salt mix. The pepper looks spicy, but it’s not: It has a refreshing, green pepper taste.

A tribute to the ultimate showman, Michael Jackson

A tribute to the ultimate showman, Michael Jackson

This is my first attempt at creating the ultimate tribute drink for the ultimate showman, the King of Pop Michael Jackson. It needs a little tinkering, but it was well-received by a group of friends last night! I especially like how the 24K gold dust adds sparkle to the rim, and then gets all over your mouth and clothes.

Here’s how to make it:

  • 1 part vodka (or gin)
  • 3/4 part cherry schnapps
  • 2 parts sour mix
  • 1/3 part Pepsi
  • Small amounts of Maraschino syrup and simple syrup (too much and the drink will be too sweet)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cocktail Kick

Stir together and serve over ice. Add a cherry for garnish.

To make the rim, apply a thin coat of simple syrup around the top edge of the glass. Dip into a dish filled with 24K gold dust.
