The Frolicking Raspberry Cocktail with Cheese Pairings
A spicy shot with a fruit infusion
Get ready to knock back a smoky surprise with this mouthwatering blend of bold flavor. We’ve combined peaty Mezcal with dry Aperol for an intense base, then sweetened things up with a dash of lime juice, bitters, and a spoonful of fresh raspberry jam. The result? A mouthful of equal parts fruity and savory. For this shot, we’ve chosen bright, crunchy cheeses that boast notes of tropical fruit and butterscotch to keep things sweet.
