Ready for a hot take on a cold drink? My Smoke Show tequila cocktail is sure to make you feel like a smoke show, and it’s perfect for just about any occasion. Made with tequila, cherry syrup, and lime juice, it’s a bold and delicious combination of flavors. You’ll be saying “yum” before you can finish your first sip. So get ready, because I’ll be taking you through a step-by-step guide on how to make this smoky tequila cocktail yourself.

The smoky aroma of cherry wood chips wafting through the air, the tart splash of lime: this drink is truly something special.

The tequila is smooth, with just a hint of sweetness from the cherry and agave syrups, while the lime juice keeps things bright and refreshing. And of course, the wood smoke brings it all together.

And importantly, any at-home bartender or bartending enthusiast can make it!
