Tommy’s Keys

Tommy’s Keys

Winter 2017

By: Eric Vellend

Key lime juice stars in this stripped-down variation on a Margarita. Created by Julio Bermejo in the ’80s at Tommy’s, his family’s restaurant in San Francisco that is still going strong today. It’s sweetened with agave syrup, which is a natural with the tequila and lends a hint of smokiness to the refreshing drink.

Makes 1 drink

2 oz 100% agave blanco tequila
1 oz strained fresh key lime juice
½ oz agave syrup
Key lime wheel

1. Place tequila, key lime juice and agave syrup in a cocktail shaker. Fill three-quarters with ice. Shake until ice cold, about 10 seconds. Strain into a chilled lowball glass filled with ice. Garnish with key lime wheel.
