For more cocktails, see my Complete Book of Mixed Drinks (HarperCollins, 2002).

I am suggesting a featured spirit for each cocktail. These choices are based on my objective evaluation and are not paid advertisements. Enjoy!

Cocktail of the Week, Sept. 24-30, 2006

Tequila Matador

Don Julio Blanco is juicy and bursting with agave flavors. The zippy finish makes it shine in a Tequila Matador.

1 1/2 oz. Don Julio Blanco Tequila
3 oz. pineapple juice
juice of half a lime
dash triple sec
crushed ice

Combine first four ingredients in a shaker with ice. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with a lime wedge.
