Description
The Gentle Bull is a surprisingly smooth and creamy way to enjoy tequila. In this variation, reminiscent of a White Russian, the earthy agave notes of tequila meet the rich sweetness of coffee liqueur. Fresh cream gives the drink a luxurious, velvety texture, making it a perfect after-dinner drink or a liquid dessert. The name "Gentle Bull" humorously plays on the often perceived "wild" nature of tequila, which is presented here in a tamed and elegant form.
Preparation
- Fill a coupe glass with ice to pre-chill it.
- Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker filled with ice cubes.
- Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until the shaker is ice-cold on the outside.
- Discard the ice from the glass.
- Strain the contents of the shaker through a fine sieve into the chilled glass.
- Optionally, garnish with three coffee beans or some chocolate shavings.
