Drenched Land: Details of the Waterlogged Terrain
Let's Mix Up a Tierra Mojada Cocktail at Dos Caminos! Known for its lively energy and top-notch bar scene, this popular establishment offers a variety of tequila-based cocktails. For our homemade version, we'll use Siembra Azul, though any 100 percent agave blanco tequila works just fine.
What you'll need:- Agave Nectar (found at health food stores and online at Wild Organics) is a natural sweetener that adds a hint of earthy sweetness. If you're unable to find agave nectar, use Rich Simple Syrup as a substitute.- Peach Puree can be purchased at specialty grocery stores or easily homemade. It gives our cocktail a delightful, fruity essence.
