Tequila brand Cazcabel and Australian condiment maker The Fermentalists have created a sweet, spicy and simple cocktail to shake up at home this winter
Forget the same old margarita. This World Tequila Day, Cazcabel Tequila and Australian chilli condiment maker The Fermentalists are turning up the heat with a Hot Honey Margarita that can be recreated anywhere in Australia.
The cocktail pairs Cazcabel Honey Tequila Liqueur with The Fermentalists’ locally made Hot Honey, fresh lime and a touch of salt, delivering the ideal balance of citrus, sweetness and slow-building spice.
Made with habanero chillies and native wattle seed, The Fermentalists’ Hot Honey adds a rich heat and subtle nuttiness to the classic margarita profile, while Cazcabel Honey brings warm notes of natural honey and agave.
The collaboration arrives as hot honey continues its move beyond pizza, fried chicken and charcuterie and into the cocktail glass, with menu mentions increasing by 56 per cent across Australian venues over the past 12 months.
Cazcabel describes itself as a “true field to glass tequila”, made using 100 per cent family estate-grown agave. The fourth-generation agave farming family grows its agave on its own fields and produces its tequila at Hacienda Cazcabel in Jalisco using only agave, water and yeast. Cazcabel Honey builds on the brand’s Blanco tequila with the rich sweetness of natural honey and notes of earthy agave.
Jordan Young, Cazcabel Brand Ambassador, said the cocktail offers an easy way for Australians to try one of the year’s biggest flavour trends at home.
“World Tequila Day is the perfect excuse to move beyond the standard margarita and experiment with bold flavours. Hot honey brings sweetness, spice and complexity, while Cazcabel Honey Tequila ties everything together with its smooth notes of honey and agave.
“Cazcabel’s approach is simple: however you enjoy your tequila, that is the right way. This cocktail is easy to make at home, but still feels special enough for a celebration.”
