El Mayor Smoked Fig & Plum Tequila Smash
Let’s talk Fall, ya’ll! Seriously, what isn’t there to love about Fall? You have fresh fall flavors, cooler weather and spooky season right around the corner! Some of my most favorite flavors are around the Fall season. Take this cocktail, a Smoked Fig & Plum Tequila smash! It was a perfect way to really use both fig and plum flavors at their peak of freshness to make the flavors of this cocktail that much better!
Let’s be honest, the star of the show besides tequila is that homemade fig & plum puree and trust me, you’re going to want to make this and keep it all season long! The flavors of fresh plums really made this cocktail what it is, so fresh, a little sweet and always refreshing. It’s a perfect way to incorporate tequila into a fall cocktail!
