About this Event
Inspired by contemporary art? So is our Lockbox Beverage team!
This month's margarita riff is an ode to Narsiso Martinez’s work addressing farm labor, Essential Since 2013. The artist’s use of banana boxes as his medium inspired us to imagine a banana-inspired cocktail. The base is tequila, a nod to the artist’s Mexican heritage, with banana used three ways in the cocktail: we use a caramelized brown sugar and banana syrup, fresh banana in the shaker tin itself, and banana peel infused vermouth. This recipe also highlights sustainability, offering guests a cocktail that uses every single part of the banana. The crème de cacao and cardamom balance provide a great backbone to round out the sweetness from the sugar and banana with the tart lemon.
