Fill a rocks glass with ice, one large cube or some crushed ice. Pour in 2 oz Añejo Tequila.
Optional - drop a lime or orange coin into the glass.
Optional- add two very tiny drops of agave and stir it around the glass for about 15-30 seconds. It mellows the bite of the tequila without adding a lot of sweetness. It also enhances the caramel flavor of the Añejo.
If you can, wait about 2 minutes before sipping your drink. It makes the tequila REALLY cold and the caramel/vanilla flavors can rise to the top.
Notes
This is not the time for cheap tequila. You are going to enjoy ALL the flavors of the Añejo so make sure you buy a quality tequila! We love Casamigos!If Tequila on the Rocks is a little too stiff for you, check out this Añejo Old Fashioned. It adds more layers of flavor and is a little more mellow. Or enjoy your Añejo mixed with fresh juices, like in this Añejo Cobbler, a take on an old fashioned Sherry Cobbler!
