Recipe Summary

prep: 10 mins

total: 45 mins

Yield: Makes 1 drink

Ingredients

Honey-Cardamom Syrup

8 cardamom pods, crushed

1/4 cup honey

Cocktail

2 ounces tequila blanco, such as Espolon

3/4 ounce fresh grapefruit juice, plus a wedge for serving

3 to 4 dashes Angostura bitters

      Cook's Notes

Tart grapefruit is called for here; if using a sweeter variety, swap half the grapefruit juice for lime juice. This recipe is scalable for a crowd: Place the ingredients in a large pitcher. Fill halfway with ice; stir with a long spoon until outside of pitcher is frosty. Strain into glasses; serve with garnishes.
