Cocktail Description

This sunlit siesta of a cocktail marries the earthy backbone of reposado tequila with rich coffee notes, creating a drink that's simultaneously invigorating and dangerously smooth.

The Tequila Wake-Up Call delivers exactly what its name promises—a gentle jolt wrapped in velvety texture. Mr Black's coffee liqueur provides deep roasted complexity while the lime juice brightens everything with citrus sharpness. The egg white creates a luxurious foam cap that softens each sip. It's an ideal afternoon pick-me-up or a sophisticated alternative to an espresso martini when you want something with more character. Thankfully, it's straightforward to prepare as long as you're comfortable with proper shaking technique to achieve that silky texture. This versatile cocktail pairs beautifully with chocolate desserts, but also stands up to savory dishes like mole poblano or even a simple plate of salted nuts and aged cheeses.
