El Diablo

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 ounce tequila
  • 1/2 ounce crème de cassis
  • 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
  • 1 1/2 ounce ginger beer

Preparation

Step 1


Combine the first three ingredients in an ice filled shake and shake until cold. Strain over ice into a rocks glass and top with ginger beer. Garnish with a lime wheel.

The El Diablo is yet another one from the Anvil Drinks List. While not an Anvil original, Bobby Heugel updated the Trader Vic recipe a bit by using a little extra tequila and substituting the more substantial ginger beer for the ginger ale in the original recipe. While Bobby’s recipe calls for 1 ounce of ginger beer, I upped the quantity a bit myself to 1 1/2.
