Best Buzz of the Week: Spicy, Sweet Red Sonja from Bartaco

For this week’s best buzz of the week, look no further than the fiery Red Sonja from Bartaco.

This handcrafted cocktail, named after the heroine in the 1980’s fantasy/thriller movie by the same name, is the perfect blend of spicy and sweet, mixing Olmeca Altos Reposado with jalapeño and ginger and balanced out with lemon juice and Byrrh Quinquina.

Try it at any Bartaco location or recreate it at home.

• 3 “coin size” slices of ginger
• ¾ ounce simple syrup
• 1 jalapeno slice
• 1 ounce lemon juice
• 1 ounce Byrrh Quinquina
• 1 ounce Olmeca Altos Reposado
