Let’s Dance – David Bowie
When you think of David Bowie, you think eclectic and upbeat and vibrant. His music is unique and catchy and so many other adjectives that don’t do it justice. But when I think of “Let’s Dance”, the title couldn’t be more fitting to the vibe of the song itself. It’s funky, it’s out there, and it makes you want to dance–so what could be a more appropriate liquor to use for this cocktail than tequila?
The blend of tequila, Midori and triple sec creates a bright, citrusy flavor that’s softened by the orange juice, and the taste becomes a comfortable buzz that’ll keep you on the dance floor, no doubt. The eccentric horns and funky bass line featured in the song are echoed perfectly by the pops of kiwi and lime that show up throughout the cocktail, both in taste and appearance. It’s a larger cocktail (fitting for the length of the song), but they both keep you grooving throughout their entirety.
Ingredients:
1 oz tequila
1 oz Midori
1 oz orange Triple Sec
top with orange juice
fresh kiwi juice
fresh lime juice
kiwi stars
orange slices
Slice kiwis and oranges and place in a tall stemmed glass with ice. Mix all ingredients together in a cocktail shaker and stir until combined. Pour into glass and garnish with more fruit slices.
